Artist Talk with Jacob Kirkegaard

Lecture
Wednesday, April 22, 2015 - 15:00

Come to an artist talk with composer and sound artist Jacob Kirkegaard, currently on show with his critically acclaimed exhibition Earside Out at the Museum of Contemporary Art.

Kirkegaard takes us on a journey of discovery in the world of sound, when he with the help of unusual archaeological methods and special recording equipment, reveals natural and anthropogenic sounds we wouldn't otherwise have the opportunity to hear.

How does singing sand sound? Can one listen to a country? Is the human ear producing sounds? How does tinnitus sound? What sounds can be found in the abandoned, radioactive buildings in Chernobyl?

These are just some of the questions Kirkegaard explores in his artistic practice. For his talk at Roskilde Library he will elaborate on his fascination for and work with these unheard sounds.
