It aims at inspiring practitioners to play with different methods for including sound in their research and artistic practice.

<h2>Sound Jams // Deluxe Edition</h2>
|
|
|
<p>This deluxe edition celebrates the launch of [sound jams] - a series of facilitated collective sound-based publication makings that I started doing as part of my master’s course research. In this case, you will find the first five editions of the sound jams: the stories behind the making, highlights from the process, visual scores, illustrations and, of course, the sonic pieces (on the micro SD card as well as accessible through a QR code & web link). </p>

<p>Across two evenings XPUB shared their work and research through interviews. Interviews here were interpreted in different ways by each student - they structured dialogues, discussions and bubbles of thought, mixed with infomercials and sonic material that shares more of our practices. The radio shows were a teaser to invite the listeners to our graduation show. They were hosted by Ål Nik [Alexandra Nikolova] and Gersande Schellinx and aired on Radio WORM on June 23rd and 27th.</p>

<h2>Installation</h2>
|
|
|
<ul id='publist'>
|
|
|
<p><i>Sound Jams // Listen and Respond</i> was a cosy, bubbly corner that invited the guests to spend a little time with (some of) the five Sound Jams. They could have a look at a sample of the audiozine publication. The visitors were also invited to respond to what they listened to by leaving an audio recording. The setup took place as part of Experimental Publishing's graduation show at Slash Gallery (Worm) between 29th of June and 2nd of July.</p>
