The Sound Of Criticism
This week (2/4): Rupert Austin, Anqi Deng, Maxine Hayes, Malay Madiyar, Chin-ting Yang, Songyue Zhu.

Are you physically here but mentally in other places? Equally one can now ask, are you listening here bur physically somewhere else. A sonic collage that takes recordings and performances from different places at different times and unifies them into one fictional realm where all of these places are communicating with one another. Part two in a four part series, developed as part of a London College of Communication, UAL, MA Sound Arts workshop in which the participants engaged in the role of written art criticism within discourse and its presence in a sound work.
