Walking Festival of Sound: Artist Walks / Jana Winderen

Walking Festival of Soundis a transdisciplinary, nomadic event exploring the role of walking through and listening to our everyday surroundings. It combines a number of free events including walking performances, walking seminars, listening sessions, and artist talks which take place in diverse offline and online spaces. Walking Festival of Sound facilitates a meeting point for an international network of practitioners and researchers interested in sound and walking in an expanded context. Through diverse events we explore how walking and listening practices can augment and challenge the way we perceive, mediate, navigate through, and care for our shared environments. In 2019 the festival takes place in two cities, Stockholm and Newcastle. In 2021, the festival moved to Krakow and Edinburgh. In 2022, the event takes place in Seoul and Vancouver.Walking Festival of Sound was founded by Jacek Smolicki and Tim Shaw.

Walking Festival of Sound

WFOS welcomes Jana Winderen to the Artist Walks series. In this talk Jana will be sharing with us her artistic and field recording practice.

In this artist talk Jana Winderen will present Through the Bones, reporting on two diverse field trips to the ocean in the Arctic and Tropic regions. She will present examples from her extensive archive of hydrophone recordings and discuss the practice and practicalities of listening through water. She will share how she works with sounds once they are collected, demonstrating pieces she has composed using underwater recordings. Jana Winderen is an artist who currently lives and works in Norway. Her practice pays particular attention to audio environments and to creatures which are hard for humans to access, both physically and aurally – deep under water, inside ice or in frequency ranges inaudible to the human ear. Her activities include site-specific and spatial audio installations and concerts, which have been exhibited and performed internationally in major institutions and public spaces. Recent work includes The Art of Listening: Underwater for Audemar Piguet at Art Basel, Miami, Rising Tide at Kunstnernes Hus in Oslo, Listening with Carp for Now is the Time in Wuzhen, Through the Bones for Thailand Art Biennale in Krabi, bára for TBA21_Academy, Spring Bloom in the Marginal Ice Zone for Sonic Acts and Ultrafield for MoMA, New York. In 2011 she won the Golden Nica at Ars Electronica for Digital Musics &amp; Sound Art. She releases her audio-visual work on Touch (UK).https://www.janawinderen.com/Walking Festival of Sound is a transdisciplinary event exploring the role of walking through and listening to our everyday surroundings.
