Warren Neidich: Noise and the Possibility of a Future
A four-day happening consisting of lectures, sound works, workshops, and performances focussing on the cultural and political potentialities of noise.
Organised in collaboration with Conservatorio di Musica Benedetto Marcello, AplusA Gallery and bruno, the event celebrates Warren Neidich´s solo exhibition “Rumor to Delusion”, currently on view at the Zuecca Project Space.
Noise is prevalent in our postindustrial society, whether it be the cacophony of the factory, the war machine that inspired such Futurists as Luigi Russolo, the dissonance of the public space, or the loud music blaring over a loudspeaker in a mall. Noise gets a bad rap as something considered offensive and that needs to be controlled or mitigated. However, noise has another side more positive and emancipatory. These events stake a claim for noise as a liberating mode of production.
