Listening with CRiSAP #2 - Her Noise

CRiSAP (Creative Research in Sound Arts Practice, UAL) celebrates its 20th anniversary with 20 unique episodes for Resonance Extra.

Since 2005, CRiSAP has pioneered new approaches to practice and theory by exploring sound and listening in relation to the environment, gender, technology, feminism, activism, conflict, text, pedagogy and voice. For Resonance Extra, CRiSAP members and friends, past and present, host a range of discussions and soundworks that cover key themes and areas of research across art, performance, symposia, publishing, curation, archives, education and more.

In this episode we discuss the Her Noise Archive - what it is, how it came to be and how it has been used to develop practice based feminist sound research at CRiSAP over the last two decades.

It includes the voices of Lina Dz̆uverović and Anne Hilde Neset, the original curators of the Her Noise exhibition in 2005 and soundclips from: Christine Kubisch's Electrical Walks (via Melanie Clifford’s programme for Her Noise radio (2005); Pauline Oliveros' To Valerie Solanas and Marilyn Monroe in Recognition of Their Desperation (1970) performed at Tate Modern in 2012; Maxine Hayes' I’m in Ether; Geoff Howse's The Moment of Now; Anuka Ramischwili-Schäfer's tbili თბილი; and Robbie Judkins' Feedback Work 1.
