    4 - Installation Shot Of The Video Wall Installation In The Exhibition Space - Side View

    Between soundtracks and audio descriptions, these tracks presume to reconstruct a hypothetical or infinitely typical contemporary art exhibition in its canonical exhibition space. Then presumably other audio tracks will be developed, which like laser scanning or like sound installation shots will describe the meta-artworks and their installation in a mental exhibition space.

  6. Radio Level Five in conversation with Rachel Bacon

    Radio Level Five in conversation with Rachel Bacon

    Currently, Rachel Bacon is working on ‘drawings‘, which might be one way to enter the discussion: what this term, or rather, the act of drawing might actually include, in specific movements, in material production, in artistic choices. Moreover, these elements add up to questioning the process itself and the meaning of what it brings to the fore. In conversation with the American-born, now Brussels-based artist, we approach these topics by exploring others. Among them: possible differences between the circumstances of art-making in the U.S., the Netherlands and London. How these differences reflect on the artistic work itself. Notions of working in public space and of leaving it behind. Aspects of the political, the non-political and the less political, of autonomy, responsibility, legibility, and about turning the pencil into something else, very slowly in time. Interviewed by Batsheva Ross and Olaf Winkler. This piece is part of a series of interviews, readings, and other sound pieces regularly published. More info on www.levelfive.brussels

  7. Radio Level Five in conversation with Ula Sickle

    Radio Level Five in conversation with Ula Sickle

    What does it mean to bring street culture into the black box of a theatre hall? At what point does raving become contemporary dance? Where do the dance floor and stage merge? And how can we somehow hold on to the idea of social intimacy associated with nightclubs when social distancing sets the scene? During the summer, we talked with Ula Sickle, a Canadian choreographer and dancer based in Brussels. Her practice runs across various disciplines and often incorporates alternative movement histories, typically excluded from the canon of contemporary dance. Her new piece Echoic Choir with vocalist Stine Janvin premiered during the Wiener Festwochen in Vienna, June 3rd. On October 5th, they will perform it at STUK in Leuven. The piece is a response of sorts to the lingering effects of the pandemic, turning the reality of physical distancing measures into artistic parameters. Using acoustic voices, spatial resonance, and specific lighting, they have sought to create a collective and immersive sensorial event, blurring the divide between performer and audience. But how to do so? How can you invite the audience into a shared space, when proximity is literally not an option? (More about Ula's work in: http://www.ulasickle.com/) Interviewed by Bas Blaasse and Batsheva Ross. This piece is part of a series with interviews, readings, and other sound pieces which are regularly published on this site. More info on Level Five via www.levelfive.brussels
