About this Event
This session explores the importance of medium to help us understand sound not just as noise, but as a way to see and experience our surroundings differently. Ultimately, we gain a deeper appreciation for how sound as a medium shape our experiences and the stories within our spaces. The session also helps us understand the embedded histories within specific soundscapes, giving us insight into how we can unearth histories of the environment through sound.

About AAVS Dubai
A glitch, often perceived as an error or disruption, serves as an unanticipated opportunity for insight and growth. Supported by Alserkal Arts Foundation, the AA Visiting School programme in Dubai explores the undefined or the in-between through situated spatial sonic practices that encompass listening, translation, and transcription.
As part of the Climate Cartographies programme, the School’s agenda in Dubai examines the intersection of climate change and heritage, while considering innovative ways of representing these themes in and through the medium of sound.
With a cohort of 20 architects, designers, cultural practitioners and artists, we will collaboratively interact with data, research, artistic practices, and the region’s complex history to develop projects that emerge from a sensitivity to both sound and land.
