ANDY GUHL – CRACKED EVERYDAY ELECTRONICS WORKSHOP, “THE INSTRUMENT”
In our physical worlds everything consist of waves – light, vibration, electricity, magnet, Sound. Through finding and  analyzing  these  waves we can transform  them  into new forms  –  audio or visual  – and look behind the surface of the usual. Andy will present his project ‘The Instrument’, used in his audio-visual performances, and consisting  of  expanded  cracked  everyday  electronics  –  a  painting  of  lights  and  sounds coming from wireless micro  cans,  photo chips,  reflectors  and  refractors  and  self  built  light  censors. He will  then reveal some of  the secrets  and  mysteries  behind  his  technique.Please  bring  everyday  objects  or  electronics  any  light  and  wave magnetic devices, which could also be broken or almost  rubbish. There are very familiar codes of how we use and live with these devices – we will break our habits and decode and crack them.

SALOMÉ VOEGELIN – DELHI SOUNDWORDS – A TALK ABOUT WRITING PHONOGRAPHY
SALOMÉ VOEGELIN would like to invite you to take part in a project of writing the soundscape of Delhi  (Delhi SoundWords).  Delhi  Soundwords forms  a  guest  edition  of  her  regular blog soundwords.tumblr.com,  to  be published  before  during  and  after  Sound  Reason  2013.  Her  blog  writes  the  soundscape,  sonic  events and occurrences in the everyday acoustic environment, without simply referencing its source but trying to deal with its passing and invisible nature. She is interested in what a transcription of listening can produce, how it can narrate the environment differently, leading to different insights, sensibilities and consequences about the world we live in and how we live in it.
She  would  like  to  invite  you  to  contribute  with  your  own  blog  entries  written  from  listening  to  Delhi.  This can  be  from  any  environment  you  listen  in:  your  home,  or  hotel  room,  the  studio,  the  street,  on  the  bus,  a conversation,  any  moment  of  listening  through  which  you  encounter  the  city,  a  city  some  of  you  know  very well  and  that  is  new  to  others.  You  are  encouraged  to  write  only  once  or  everyday,  and  send  these  texts tomail@salomevoegelin.net as you go along. The aim is to provide a different image of the place, one made from the  relationships,  processes  and  materials  forming below  the  surface  of  the  visible; to explore  the  landscape through its sound, to hear it as an environment, a timespace place that does not afford us a vista but grants us access to the mobility of its own production.
This  phonographic  project  will  be  presented  in  London  as  part  of  “Points  of  Listening”  a  listening  project organised by Mark Peter Wright Salomé Voegelin and in conjunction with CRiSAP (Centre for Creative Research in Sound Arts Practice) from 2014.
