Fractured Narratives
- A response to the Her Noise Archive at the London College of Communication;
"Her Noise Archive is a resource of collected materials investigating music and sound histories in relation to gender bringing together a wide network of women artists who use sound as a medium". (http://hernoise.org)
O[au]ral Projection; Reading as Listening, Soundings as Text
Forming a Collective Memory, is a work that seeks to define the relationship between the level of control and order when considering the interweaving of language and communication, written and spoken. The works within have derived from numerous locations during long, unaccompanied improvised street wandering, influencing my thought process in order to create fractured narratives as an attempt to responded to the questions:
What is a word without a beginning, a birth, a borning? What if there is no sound to from a word but a constant thought of reverberation - the inner voice. Words and thoughts swarming the insides of the mind that only you can hear. The voice communicating the words when reading speaking and thinking, who does it belong to? ... Now think about the thought process before the commitment to writing and speaking... are you in conscious control?
The street haunting, the experiences, the lone wandering, and the location - how do you page the sound that you hear on the outside, simultaneously to the thoughts located on the inside, accompanying one and other as an orchestrated, yet improvised, alienated experience. How much or how little do they combine? How much level of control does one have on the commitment to their lexical choices, formed as a derivation from a current happening. How does the memory of a previous place exist (if still in the present mind) within the new location? How much influence does it have on the current state of mind?
Existing in book form, the latter locates a selection of my works and collected (manipulated) thought processes, in order to exist as a documented journey, a journey that has influenced and encouraged the vocal and locational derivation of 17 Minutes of. The formation of word play and the manipulation of language and visuals as a result reflect my thought processes throughout the making, and the gaining of control when creating non-linear structures that do not necessarily make complete reasonable sense but [tries] to encourage another kind of sense.
... Unexplained happenings, found sounds and fragmented conversations and unspoken words existing within.
