DIY11: 2014 Live Art Development Agency

Really pleased to announce that I will be running a DIY11 session with Johanna Linsley with the Live Art Development Agency, Sound & Music and Arts Bournemouth. Looking forward to spending a few days listening in on the conversations of others and presenting the eavesdropping cabaret! Applications are open now, we would love to work with artists from all backgrounds - opera singers, live artists, theatre makers etc.

Stolen Voices is about eavesdropping. It is about listening-in, or the way listening is always positioned in space and in time. It is about overhearing, or the stuff we add to everything we hear – the biases and associations that help us construct identities for those who surround us. Finally, it is about the (often uncomfortably) unstable border between private and public that we all negotiate by existing in common with others. Taking place over one weekend, and alternating between independent fieldwork and group creation, this workshop culminates in an ‘Eavesdropping Cabaret’ – details on this to follow once attendance is confirmed.
