Download or read book Janet Cardiff written by Janet Cardiff and published by London : Artangel. This book was released on 1999 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book documents Janet Cardiff's 1999 audio project, The Missing voice (Case Study B), and includes the full audio CD as well as images from this exploration of London's inner city. Part urban guide, part fiction, part film noir, her audio walk entwines the listener in a narrative that shifts through time and space. Intimate, even conspirational, Cardiff has created a psychologically absorbing experience for an audience of one at a time. You find yourself transported back in time. What was that sound? Who is speaking to you? Where does reality end, and what's imagined begin? Also included is an extended essay analyzing the artist's career to date. Born in 1957, in Brussels, Canada, Cardiff works and lives in Alberta and has shown internationally in, among others, London, New York, Berlin, and Vienna. Her work has been included in significant group exhibitions, notably Skulptur Projekte Munster, 1997; Present Tense: Nine Artists in the Nineties, at San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; the 1999 Carnegie International; and the Museum as Muse at New York's Museum of Modern Art.

Book No Voice is Ever Wholly Lost

Download or read book No Voice is Ever Wholly Lost written by Louise J. Kaplan and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this inspirational book, Louise J. Kaplan, the critically acclaimed author of Oneness and Separateness and Adolescence, takes the experiences of separation and loss beyond the conventional stages of mourning to illuminate the psychological forces that sustain the dialogue between parents and children even after death." "Based on insights gleaned from her own experience as a psychoanalyst, as well as from cases of lost parents and children in art, literature, and recent history, Dr. Kaplan illustrates the ways in which this dialogue - the human dialogue - "is the heartbeat of our existence." Through the gestures of everyday life, a parent imparts to a child first the emotional expression, then the verbal language, and finally the symbolic communications of humankind that enable one to participate in society. Once we're engaged in the human dialogue, Dr. Kaplan explains, we cannot live without it." "When this dialogue is silenced by death or separation, we are, by nature, compelled to invent various life scenarios to reconnect with the lost one. These efforts, which are usually unconscious, lead people to gradually assimilate certain aspects of the lost beloved into their own self, often resulting in devastating acts of self-destruction or great artistic achievements. "Long after the return of logic and reason, long after we rejoin the world of the living, we are still attached to our lost ones," Dr. Kaplan writes. "The human dialogue - that which makes living a life worthwhile - goes on. In the absence of this dialogue, we are lost."" "Filled with moving, true-life experiences of parents and children who have loved and lost, No Voice Is Ever Wholly Lost is a book for anyone who wishes to know himself better. Personal and redemptive, it is a book that will encourage and help you grow beyond your own loss to a new strength of spirit."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book They Had No Voice

Download or read book They Had No Voice written by Denny Abbott and published by NewSouth Books. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Denny Abbott first encountered the Alabama Industrial School for Negro Children at Mt. Meigs as a twenty-one-year-old probation officer for the Montgomery County Family Court. He would become so concerned about conditions for black juvenile offenders there--including hard labor, beatings, and rape--that he took the State of Alabama to court to win reforms. With the help of the U.S. Justice Department, Abbott won a resounding victory that brought change, although three years later he had to sue the state again. In They Had No Voice, Abbott details these battles and how his actions cost him his job and made him a pariah in his hometown, but resulted in better lives for Alabama's children. Abbott also tells of his later career as the first national director of the Adam Walsh Child Resource Center, where he helped focus attention on missing and exploited children and became widely recognized as an expert on children's issues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: STAR OF BRITAIN'S GOT TALENT! SOON APPEARING BGT: THE CHAMPIONS! 'A truly eye-opening book from a fantastic comedian.' ADAM KAY 'Comedy genius... The funniest book I've read in years.' - DAVID WALLIAMS What's the worst thing about being disabled? Is it the shameless staring? Is it that people assume you're a bit thick because you can't speak? Or is it that your friends always take you to theme parks just so they can jump the queues? In fact, it's the stupid questions that really rile Lee Ridley, aka Lost Voice Guy. And over the years he's been inundated with them, from people who have failed to engage their brains before opening their mouths. Which is where I'm Only In It for the Parking comes in - think of it as a disabled FAQ, with funny (sometimes painfully funny) stories from Lee's not-so-ordinary life. If you think you know what it's like to be disabled, prepare to have your perceptions skewed by the much-loved Britain's Got Talent winner, the brilliant stand-up who struggles to stand up, the Geordie without the accent. And before you ask ... no, he really can't speak at all. But he definitely has something to say. 'Hilarious.' The Sun.

Book The Oxford Handbook of Sound Art

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Sound Art written by Jane Grant and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 625 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sound art has long been resistant to its own definition. Emerging from a liminal space between movements of thought and practice in the twentieth century, sound art has often been described in terms of the things that it is understood to have left behind: a space between music, fine art, and performance. The Oxford Handbook of Sound Art surveys the practices, politics, and emerging frameworks of thought that now define this previously amorphous area of study. Throughout the Handbook, artists and thinkers explore the uses of sound in contemporary arts practice. Imbued with global perspectives, chapters are organized in six overarching themes of Space, Time, Things, Fabric, Senses and Relationality. Each theme represents a key area of development in the visual arts and music during the second half of the twentieth century from which sound art emerged. By offering a set of thematic frameworks through which to understand these themes, this Handbook situates constellations of disparate thought and practice into recognized centers of activity.

Book The Oxford Handbook of Sound and Image in Western Art

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Sound and Image in Western Art written by Yael Kaduri and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-06-15 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of Sound and Image in Western Art examines, under one umbrella, different kinds of analogies, mutual influences, integrations and collaborations of audio and visual in different art forms. The book represents state-of-the-art case studies with key figures of modern thinking constituting a foundation for discussion. It thus emphasizes avant-garde and experimental tendencies, while analyzing them in historical, theoretical, and critical frameworks. The book is organized around three core thematic sections. The first, Sights and Sounds, concentrates on the interaction between the experience of seeing and the experience of hearing. Examples of painting, classic and digital animation, video art, choreography, and music performance are examined in this section. Sound, Space, and Matter explores experimental forms emanating from the expansion of the concepts of music and space to include environmental sounds, vibrating frequencies, silence, language, human habitats, the human body, and more. The reader will find here an analysis of different manifestations of this aesthetic shift in sound art, fine art, contemporary dance, multimedia theatre, and cinema. The last section, Performance, Performativity, and Text, shows how new light shed by modernism and the avant-garde on the performative aspect of music have led it - together with sound, voice, and text - to become active in new ways in postmodern and contemporary art creation. In addition to examples of real-time performing arts such as music theatre, experimental theatre, and dance, it includes case studies that demonstrate performativity in fine art, visual poetry, short film, and cinema. Sitting at the cutting edge of the field of music and visual arts, the book offers a unique, at times controversial view of this rapidly evolving area of study. Artists, curators, students and scholars will find here a panoramic view of cutting-edge discourse in the field, by an international roster of scholars and practitioners.
