rIGA SOUND LOCATIONS
Riga Sound Locations - site-specific sound/video project
The 'Riga Sound Locations' project is a variation of the Location Sound Films project by John Grzinich. The project has been adapted to work in the context of Riga and its surroundings to show a unique form of urban intervention. Apart from the documentation of site-specific improvisations, the project also focuses on live collaborations between John Grzinich, Maksims Shentelevs and other artists from Latvia.
The Location Sound Films project starts with the concept of site-specific artistic activity while integrating contemporary sound recording practices that cover areas of "performance", "field recording", "improvisation" and "documentation". With the site being the prime focus, the artist as actor and instigator uses the means of sound to investigate the qualities of of the surrounding space and his or place in it.
The techniques involved use many existing ideas related sound rcording and/or practices of experimental music, while adding the component of video simultaneously. In most cases sound recordings are captured directly to the camera and can be left alone or processed during editing. Various techniques are used to make recordings, some more clearly visible than others, depending on the type of sound captured (stereo condenser microphones or piezo contact microphones). Video in this case correlates more closely with film as it is an attempt to make use of the image as non-narrative document on site-specific, location based sound activity.
Riga Sound Locations aims to offer a unique form of artistic and social interaction for a set of different spaces around the city. As the artists interact with each other there will also be the inevitable link to the location where these interventions take place. Both the visual and auditory environment will be captured as events. The difference here for the senses is that we can frame the visual image the sound we cannot. This should provide an important comment on the sound environment in which we live versus the visual counterpart.
