Dear List,
I'd like to help this month's theme along by asking this month's
guests, (and others), their opinions on whether sound art does best
in sound-art-specific events or in mixed shows.
Something I noticed about the press coverage of the show "010101" at SFMOMA
was that sound magazines and journals tended to review only the sound
art in the exhibition, and that the visual art magazines didn't say
much about the primarily audio works. There was, however, a little
crossover, and evidence that reviewers were starting to think about
media that they would not have otherwise considered.
Does mixing the media help to mix the audience, or does it lead to
mutual incomprehension?
I look forward to hearing of your experiences,
yours,
Beryl
