Join Andrej Bako for a guided sound walk around the beautiful village of Ruthin for 45 minutes. Drawing from Pauline Oliveros’s Deep Listening we will totally immerse ourselves in the environment, connecting with the subtle and nuanced sonic elements of the soundscape that Andrej will aim to discover on his stay there.
No experience or equipment required but you're welcome to bring something to record the sounds with.
About the artist:
Andrej Bako (b. Cardiff, Wales) is a London-based sound artist with roots via Greece, Slovakia and Wales. Through installation, site specific work and performance he researches ideas around collective cultural memory, human agency and our impact on the natural world, inviting the audience to create new connections to the unheard; the nuanced rhythm and sounds uncovered from our environment.
He uses laptop electronics, modular synthesis and field recordings to compose intricate soundscapes, combining algorithmic and generative techniques alongside musical influences of 90’s Detroit techno and dub.
Most recently he designed and composed a 16 channel ambisonic piece for permanent installation in London’s Natural History Museum. His work has been shown in galleries at the Barbican London, Hayward’s Gallery Artnight, William Morris Gallery and internationally such as The Light Festival, Iceland. He has performed in the UK in Café Oto, Iklectic, New River Studios, O2 Academy Islington and throughout the world, recently returning from a 4-month tour of venues and festivals in Slovakia, Czech Republic and Italy.
