Gwaith Sŵn's Sonic Darts
[Repeated from Monday 10pm.] Sound-art and transmission-art delivered by London sound art collective Gwaith Sŵn. This month: Rare Earths. This broadcast delves into the visceral intersection of sound art, performance and extractive politics with Bolivian artist and researcher Guely Morato Loredo, director of the Sonandes.org platform. Her latest work, Rare Earths, takes the form of a performative dinner where guests are invited to gather around an edible landscape that evokes the actual extraction in the Andean Altiplano and the Lithium Triangle (Bolivia, Chile, Argentina). Using transducers embedded in the table to transmit infrasound and a multichannel soundscape composed of field recordings from the territory, Guely Morato transforms the act of eating into a ritual of confrontation. The work not only documents resource exploitation but seeks to re-tune the participants' bodies to the invisible forces and cycles of sacrifice of the land, making the abstract violence of global supply chains tactile, audible, and tasteable. Guely Morato's trajectory, anchored in the direction of Sonandes since 2014, underpins this exploration of deep listening as a political act.
