Jez Riley French: A Quiet Position: The Act and Art of Field Recording

‘Sound, Place, Memory’, led by CRiSAP developed three artist-led two day workshops that combined theoretical insights and practical inspiration. The workshop themes were chosen to scope the field of potential responses to our heard world and its inhabitants – the vibrations of molecules through materials, water and the air and how we can capture these and record with them; the rendering of acoustic experience and remembered association into words that make sense of the idea of ‘sonic distance’ and meaning; and the sounds of the everyday as narratives that can be negotiated through the human voice.
