Offering broad exploration of practices of artistic transformation, this year’s festival brings together artists who approach
this idea with a wide understanding of its inherent possibilities. Taking inspiration from predecessors, or mining non-sound
related data and information, these artists trace paths through sound and performance that diverge into new forms,
expressions and ideas. Their sonic embodiments and sound mappings offer up different ways of understanding and seeing
the world.

Spun Spectra
Nicolas Teichrob’s projects seek to expand the collective awareness of environmental issues while encouraging outdoor
recreation and exploration of our wild places. His installation Spun Spectra is a photographic sound series of illuminated
prints backed by resonating cedar panels that explore the diversity and simple complexities of spider web structures by
capturing the refraction and diffraction of sunlight.
