Creative Research into Sound Arts Practice (CRiSAP) is a research centre of the University of the Arts London dedicated to the exploration of the rich complexities of sound as an artistic practice.
Our main aim is to extend the development of the emerging disciplinary field of sound arts and to encourage the broadening and deepening of the discursive context in which sound arts is practised.
Research Feature: Sonic Possible and Impossible Bodies: uncurating knowledge
Keynote presentation by Salomé Voegelin at WHAT SOUNDS DO – New Directions in an Anthropology of Sound conference in September 2022. 'Sonic Possible and Impossible Bodies: uncurating knowledge' explores how things are organised and how these organisations are political, and exclusionary, a matter of power and violence, as a violence done to how we move, and look, and listen together or alone.
Nicol Parkinson is an artist and researcher working with sound in the fields of music, live art and performance seeking out the connections and confusions between these forms. Their practice investigates the use of sounding strategies in composition and improvisation as they weave through the corporeal, verbal, temporal, social, political and historical spheres.
