Musik für Kunst: “Every space needs a sound”. Bologna-Parma, 18-30 May 2007
Musik für Kunst, curated by Chiara Cardinali, is a travelling sound project that invites musicians to compose and collaborate together in many places. The artists will produce sounds that are conceived from their inspiration, connected with the location that will host them, in order to build a relation sound-space. The composition can be a work in progress or an improvised, extempore one; it can be presented as single, independent work or it can be enriched with sounds produced from others or with some of different artistic fields. The common feature of all the sound interventions is the relation between sound and space; in the first stage of the project, the artists are invited to compose and play in a gallery (Galleria Neon, Bologna) and in a club(VeroniKa club, Parma), in order to recreate sounds and visions that these locations, which are predisposed to creativity, evoke. The spaces, in this sense, become a sort of containers for art and, at the same time, objects of inspiration for creating art. In the moment of its performing in front of the audience every composition is at the same time recorded. Every artist, then, will have access to the sounds in order to manipulate them and include them in the following compositions.
The sharing of data and the consequent manipulation of them follows the philosophy of the free software: giving free access to data of free property, which can be used and modified by other people. Every performance becomes part of a project that is infinitely extendible, that grows from several steps, carrying the sounds that represent also the places where they were, in order to build a space-music route.
