The London College of Communication, LCC, UAL, and Points of Listening, CRiSAP (Creative Research into Sound Art Practice), present: Invisible Symposium.

This symposium seeks to reach through works and words the invisible of sound.

Between sound works and talks the symposium aims to discuss and perform the invisible in politics, the everyday, in ecology and in creative practice: to see what sound could show us, and how it could make us think the possible of an audible world.

It brings to a public forum ideas and practices developed in a week of collaborative working, involving staff and students from the Musrara School of Art and Society, Jerusalem, the Bergen Academy of Art and Design, and the Sound Arts program at the London College of Communication, University of the Arts London, hosted by LCC.

Works by the students produced during the week, staff responses and their own research, as well as presentations and sound works by CRiSAP (Creative Research into Sound Art Practice) researchers and doctoral students, and specially invited guests, perform between practice and research, sound and language to propose what the invisible might be, what it might mean and contribute to what we do and what we think about the world.

Fari Bradley, Kate Carr, Thomas Gardner, Kiki Keren-Hus, Brandon LaBelle, Matt Parker, J. Milo Taylor, David Toop, Salomé Voegelin, Mark Peter Wright, with Julian Brown, Chase Coley, Steven Walker and students.
