SOUND DEATH: endangered, delicate, and increasingly rare (Part 1)

This month, we're featuring work from Fragments of Sonic Extinction (FOSE) a group exhibition in Munich, Germany and an interactive website. FOSE explores the extinction of natural sounds, focusing on the sonic character of the extinction process and its relationship with cultural histories and global catastrophes related to the anthropocene. The curators commissioned eight new works from artists across the globe, presented live for an exhibition in Munich this May, and released on a multimedia website you can access from home: www.sonicextinction.net. This episode features an interview with the co-curators, Kalas Liebfried (Munich) and Laura Margaret Ramsey (Toronto).

This is Part 1 of SOUND DEATH. Next month, we'll be returning to the subject
