In conjunction with Archive Live 2017, The Sonic Worlds of Performance on June 14, 6:30PM will bring together warren-crow+warren-crow with members of the Bay Area’s performance community for a public panel discussion about sound in performance. The particular make-up of the panel including warren-crown+warren-crow will create a path for a wide array of discussion topics. Of particular interest is considering the particular ways that sound engages spectators differently than the visual aspects of performance; the recent increase in the use of sound in dramatic performance; the difficulties around archiving the sounds of live performance; the challenges of writing about sound, and the relationship between the compositional and choreographic processes.

Panel:

Heather Warren-Crow, PhD, performance artist, Assistant Professor of Interdisciplinary Arts in the College of Visual & Performing Arts, Texas Tech University

Seth Warren-Crow, sound designer, composer, percussionist, Assistant Professor - Sound Design at Texas Tech University, USITT

Sheldon Smith, dance and music artist, Visiting Assistant Professor, Dance Department Head, Mills College

Tanya Zimbardo, Assistant Curator, Media Arts, SFMOMA

Derek Phillips, independent sound artist San Francisco

Alessio Silvestrin, free lance choreographer, composer resident in Japan, collaborator William Forsythe Cny
