Aural Architecture at WNUR
Thursday, October 7, 2010 (7:30 p.m.)
WNUR (89.3 FM)
1877 Campus Drive
Evanston, IL 60208
Aural Architecture, which is part of the Fifth Annual Chicago Calling Arts
Festival and Chicago Artists Month, explores sonic properties of buildings
and how natural soundscapes relate to the built environment, and includes
musicians interacting with buildings' sounds. A sculptor will present a
sculpture that pertains to this theme, and musicians in remote locations
will perform together telematically via Skype, with contributions of audio
recordings from inside and around buildings --
• Julia Miller (guitar), Jeff Carter (sculpture), Satya Gummuluri (vocals),
Dan Godston (trumpet), and Anthony Poretti (drums) at WNUR;
• Berg26 at a 19th Century morgue in Berlin -- Annie Goh, Florian Goeschke,
Thomas Wochnik, Anna Bäumer, Patrick Muller, Daniel Imhoff, Elen Flügge,
Christof Wenta, Damian Rebgetz, and Alexander Sieber;
• Marcos Fernandes at the Yamagin Archive (Shimonoseki, Japan);
• audio recording contributions by Barry Blesser, Tony Schwartz and Jimmy
Giuffre, and other TBA individuals
During the Fifth Annual Chicago Calling Arts Festival, Chicago-based artists
collaborate with artists in other locations -- both here in the U.S. and
abroad. These collaborations involve a range of art forms -- including
music, dance, film, literature, and intermedia -- and they are prepared or
improvised. Some Chicago Calling events involve live feeds between Chicago
and other locations. 2010 Chicago Calling events include "Bicycles and the
Arts" at Happy Dog Gallery, "Translations 2010" at the Reconstruction Room,
"Seda Röder / Burton Greene - Harrison Bankhead Duo Concert" at Curtiss
Hall, "Temperatures and Shapes / Arctic Live" at Elastic Sound & Vision
Gallery, "I Remember Fred" at the Velvet Lounge, "Chicago Calling, Waiting
for the Bus" at Café Ballou, "Two Way Tarot Mirrors" at Myopic Books, "My
Favorite Banned Books Abecedarian Read-Out" at the Logan Square Library,
"Aural Architecture" at WNUR, and other events.
