Ourselves | Listening Arts Channel

In listening to ourselves we examine different ways in which the act of listening can be guided to enhance and develop self awareness and the awareness of others, and become a thread that binds core selfhoods between individuals.

SOUND BATHS provides weekly sessions of live gong and bowl playing sessions inspired by the basic earth elements, SONOMATECA focuses on how sound resonates in that space in between our skin and our clothing, QUINTEPHONICS goes inside the brain for a series of workshops that turn brain waves to sound. Communication is opened up with TELEMATIC IMPROVISATION which explores improvisation with sound, visuals, voice, instrumentation and movement and UTTERINGS which encourages participants for pre-lingual communication.

SONOMATECA - A body listening practice

ARTUR VIDAL and KARINA SCHERBAKOVA

Starting from previous research involving the activation via somatic practice of the whole body as a listening tool, this new Sonomateca series prolongs this journey by including clothing into the definition of what the body is. In these new episodes we will develop a Deep Listening practice to find out how sound resonates in that space in between our skin and our clothing and how the body, augmented by this artificial skin, senses the world.
