CCA Derry~Londonderry | Audio CCA Derry~Londonderry

CCA Introducing continues with a takeover by R Talitha Samuel, an independent cultural producer and editor based in New Delhi, India. R's takeover, entitled Samuel, meaning 'God Has Heard', takes place on CCA's Instagram and Spotify on Sunday 24 March 2024.

Below, you can find a description of the takeover:

'I had a totally different plan in mind for this visual and audio project when I initially started out. However, just before I was all set to hit record, my grandfather got very sick and passed away. This was during the month of December 2023, and it naturally changed the course of not only my life and understanding of myself but also of this work. I wanted to explore why I do what I do in terms of my approach to audio as a medium, mediated through the literal voices of members of my community and my family. Now, my takeover, Samuel, meaning 'God Has Heard', composed of audio recordings, old Tamil hymns and voice notes will dive into the warp and weft of grief, collective prayer, sound as infrastructure, recording as witness and what it means to be a man.'

Welcome to our latest Round Table from CCA Derry~Londonderry. We bring together artists to talk about their work and experiences.

Sound and Vision connects this episode's speakers: Peter Glasgow, Susan Hughes and Ryan Vail. Recorded during Susan Hughes' solo show, 'Stones From a Gentle Place' at CCA, each artists' practice spans music and visual art. Susan is a fiddle player using music to barter for stories, Peter experiments with slide guitar and participated in CCA's Digital Residency 'The Honkey Tonks and Me⁠' in Autumn 2023, and Ryan Vail won the NI Music Award for Best Album with Elma Orkestra in 2019 as well as working with Visual Spectrum Studios creating audio-visual installations.
