Evocative Sounds

Service Description

The broad premise of this residency is to use music education techniques to improve listening and aural discernment abilities when youth and seniors are connecting with each other. Borrowing from the field of acoustic ecology, it aims to provide the opportunity to focus on the sound environment, which we would otherwise take for granted, for the development of ethics, aesthetics, and personal knowledge. The ability to listen effectively and be conscious of our interpretations of the information from our sound environments are universal and could provide keys to developing cross-cultural and intergenerational learning. Facilitated by Artists-in-Residence Mani Adib & Marin Morrison
