Listening to Donald Judd
Sound is becoming an integrated part of contemporary artistic practises. Artists working with sound are relating to and crossing the boundaries between contemporary fine arts, sound art, sound in the arts, contemporary music, popular music, experimental music, electronic music and more, all with their particular and interweaving histories and discourses.
This course will encourage an increased awareness and appreciation of the different perspectives, when listening to sound and music as well as through the development of a language for discussing sound and music.
We will meet for 1-2 hours at regular intervals (approx. every 2-3 weeks) to listen to, discuss and analyze a selection of works spanning the history of sound art as well as contemporary and popular music, combined with collective readings of selected relevant texts.
This course is done in collaboration with BEK and will take place at BEK, at the top floor of C. Sundtsgt. 55, where we will have access to better speakers and a dryer acoustic environment for listening.
