... too wide a field. Sound Art in Berlin.

"Looking at SoundArt in Berlin today, we find not only an evolved art form, but a unique cultural situation, making this city still one of the worlds most lively SoundArt centres. The history of SoundArt in Berlin is here traced back to the 1970s when the Western part of the divided city became a centre of cross-disciplinary and experimental art. To understand the subsequent development, the article starts with the underlying cultural and political situation of Berlin in the last few decades."

    Klangen følger vind og vejr og tiden er blevet opløst
    Ingeborg Okkels har mødt Jakob Draminsky Højmark, der var lydkunster før begrebet overhovedet eksisterede. Dengang i 80erne, hvor det hed ’improvisationsmusik’ og hvor jerntæppet delte Europa, men musikken alligevel flød på tværs. I 2015 er veteranen vendt tilbage til år nul.
