SWEEP – Internationales Symposium zur Klangforschung
05/2016
Event name: SWEEP – INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON SOUND RESEARCH
Description
A SWEEP is a sine tone, continously increasing within the human hearing range, starting at 20Hz going up to 20kHz. Similary to the oscillation of this kind of test signal, the focus of the SWEEP symposium is dynamic. Thus SWEEP is highlighting areas of the arts and sciences of sound, of the „legacies“ according to Blumenberg and the presence of sound research. In the course of the two-days event, the question of how transdisciplinary collaborations impact on the process of research, artistic work and the methods in-between is of particular interest. Within the SWEEP Sound Research Symposium, artists, researchers and teachers from five countries and of nine universities will present their contributions to the fields of Critical Analysis as well as emipirical research, research design in selected environments and in the field of Artistic Research.
