Panel Discussion: Listening Through a Beam of Intense Darkness
|
Discussion at the ICA London between composer Seth Ayyaz, artist Lisa Skuret, musicologist Zeynep Bulut, composer Erik Nyström, and fig-2 curator Fatos Ustek. The focus of the conversation will revolve around the sound works presented across the week at fig-2 48/50: Listening through a beam of intense darkness at the ICA and will range across notions of cognitive opacity/translucency, and the concept of ‘listening without a listener’, to the problematics of an ‘Islamic sonic-social’ and practices of not knowing. |
