The Sound Through Artists is a platform of composers, musicians and performers, focused in the relationship between architecture and sound, working from field recordings to live performance. It is a site-specific art collective that will change according with the environment, community and settings where the exploration takes place.

Gggggrrrrrr!!!!!!! I can't put you in my Top-lovely-friends! I keep trying and it doesn't work. Never mind the bollocks...no need to show off. Loads of luv,StElLa.
Using field recordings made in the underground rooms and passages of the Shunt Vaults, The Sound Through Artists will build a series of composition to set base for a long jam session spanning 4 days.
This residency aims to respond to the architectural features of Shunt, interpreting the space through improvisation and sound manipulation.
From the 14th to the 16th, different ensembles of composers/performers will converse in response to one another through analogical, recorded, processed sound, and live instrumentation inside an intimate space adjoining Shunt's main corridor. The performers will also move beyond this space extending the sonic boundaries of the work. On the evening of the 17th, all the performers involved will come together for a final show. This final act is not intended to be read as a conclusion to the music and sound created during this residency, rather it will act as homage to the continuous composition this specific underground realm has inspired.
The Sound Throgh Artists for this project are: Bruno Humberto, Tristan Shorr, Nahum Mantra, James Alaska, Tom Mudd, Jane Dickson, VLK, plus guests
