Description
An account of the resource
<i>Free Jazz III. Sound. Walks.</i> <br /><br />Activation: <i>Improvisation and Control</i> by Sean Dockray, Dr James Parker, and Joel Stern (all Australia) Saturday, 13 March 2021, 3.00 – 6.00pm Singapore / 6.00 – 9.00pm Australia Online <br /><br /><i>MACHINE LISTENING</i> is an investigation and experiment in collective learning, instigated by artist Sean Dockray, legal scholar James Parker, and curator Joel Stern for Liquid Architecture. The project launched in October 2020 at Unsound Festival in Poland and continues at NTU CCA Singapore. <br /><br />Our devices are listening to us. Previous generations of audio-technology transmitted, recorded or manipulated sound. Today our digital voice assistants, smart speakers and a growing range of related technologies are increasingly able to analyse and respond to it as well. Scientists and engineers increasingly refer to this as ‘machine listening’, though the first widespread use of the term was in computer music. Machine listening is much more than just a new scientific discipline or vein of technical innovation however. It is also an emergent field of knowledge-power, of data extraction and colonialism, capital accumulation, automation and the management of desire. It demands critical and artistic attention. <br /><br />As part of <i>Free Jazz III</i>, the project explores machine listening’s history in computer music, and the evolving dynamics between improvisation and control.

<p>Collaborative and experimental by nature, <em>Free Jazz III </em>builds upon its past iterations by activating and challenging common understandings of exhibition-making and the use of space. Sound walks. Machines listen. We are living through unusual times. </p>
<p>As the NTU Centre for Contemporary Art Singapore approaches a major transformation away from a permanent exhibition space in early 2021, <em>Free Jazz III</em> continues to explore the possibilities of an international research centre for contemporary art, featuring many artists who have been part of NTU CCA Singapore’s exhibitions, residencies, and programs since 2013, when the Centre presented <em>Free Jazz</em> as its inaugural event. The project began as a form of inquiry and an active tool to generate new possibilities for conceptualizing and programming an art institution. <em>Free Jazz III </em>convenes diverse projects united by themes of adaptation via masterful improvisation, trans-mediatic pivots, and the conscious renegotiation of our relationships to nature, technology, and each other. The disparate components of <em>Free Jazz III </em>explore the elements of dissonance, resistance, and innovation embedded in its musical namesake and the ability for sound and art to transcend physical and social distance. Embracing sound and walking as two powerful ways to overcome distance and bring people together, <em>Free Jazz III </em>comprises projects that can take place in non-gallery spaces, independently, asynchronously, or in purposeful syncopation with the present moment, reflecting on the past and looking forward to the future. </p>
<p>Admission to all programmes and events is free.</p>
<p><strong><span><a href="http://ntu.ccasingapore.org/events/sound-walks/"><em>Sound. Walks.</em></a></span><br />January–March 2021 (On-site and online)</strong></p>
<p>Reflecting on the loss of physicality through increased virtual interactions as well as many histories of sound and walking, artists address common life and communality in times of social distancing. In this series of performative explorations of sound, music, and community building, reflections take the form of soundwalks, sonic wayfinding and other physical and aural experiences, offering multiple ways for the public to actively witness, listen and participate, both remotely and on-site. Soundwalks by <strong>Tini Aliman</strong> (Singapore), <strong>Christa Donner</strong> and <strong>Andrew S Yang</strong> (United States), and <strong>Diana Lelonek </strong>(Poland) and <strong>Denim Szram</strong> (Poland/Switzerland) are propelled by sonic outputs of nature. Storytelling, correspondence, and the impossibility of direct communication factor into projects by <strong>Cheryl Ong</strong> (Singapore), <strong>Ana Prvački</strong> (Romania/Germany) in collaboration with <strong>Joyce Bee Tuan Koh</strong> (Singapore) and <strong>Galina Mihaleva </strong>(Bulgaria/Singapore), and <strong>Vivian Wang</strong> (Singapore/Switzerland). Sound, history, culture, and space overlap and intertwine in works by <strong>Arahmaiani </strong>(Indonesia) and <strong>Jimmy Ong</strong> (Singapore),<strong> bani haykal</strong> (Singapore) and <strong>Lee Weng Choy </strong>(Malaysia),<strong> Reetu Sattar</strong> (Bangladesh), and<strong> anGie Seah</strong> (Singapore).</p>
<p><em>Free Jazz III. Sound. Walks. </em>is curated by <strong>Magdalena Magiera</strong> (Germany/Singapore), NTU CCA Singapore Curator, Education and Outreach, and <strong>Dr Karin Oen</strong> (United States/Singapore), NTU CCA Singapore Deputy Director, Curatorial Programmes</p>
<p><strong><span><a href="http://ntu.ccasingapore.org/events/under-the-skin/"><em>Under the Skin</em></a><br /></span>1 December 2020 – 31 January 2021 (Online)</strong></p>
<p>World premiere and special performance<br />1 December 2020, 7pm SGT</p>
<p>This trio of performative works by artists <strong>George Chua </strong>(Singapore), <strong>Nina Djekić </strong>(Slovenia/Singapore/Netherlands), and <strong>Noor Effendy Ibrahim </strong>(Singapore) engages with sound, bodily movements, and performance. These new pieces are cinematically translated into the medium of video by filmmaker <strong>Russell Morton</strong> (Singapore) and viewed online, acknowledging the curatorial premise that, “the pandemic has pushed us into a space of dramatic convergence—where a deep tech, hyper-connected future collides with social political unrest,” in both the work itself and the medium in which it is presented.</p>
<p><em>Under the Skin</em> is curated for <em>Free Jazz III </em>by artist <strong>Cheong Kah Kit </strong>(Singapore) as part of <a href="https://www.novelwaysofbeing.sg/"><em>Proposals for Novel Ways of Being</em></a>, a united response to the changes brought about by COVID-19 hosted by twelve Singapore arts institutions, initiated by the National Gallery Singapore and Singapore Art Museum.</p>

<p>Expanded collaborations and explorations of curatorial spaces also took form in support of <em>Machine Listening, a curriculum</em> instigated by Melbourne-based <strong>Liquid Architecture</strong>. This evolving online resource, comprising existing and newly commissioned writing, interviews, music and artworks is a new investigation and experiment in collective learning around the emergent field of machine listening. It premiered with three online sessions open to all as part of <span><a href="https://www.unsound.pl/en/intermission"><em>Unsound 2020: Intermission</em></a></span>, an experimental sound festival in Krakow, Poland. NTU CCA Singapore and Liquid Architecture will convene another collaborative online session open to the public in early 2021.</p>
<p><em>Machine Listening, a curriculum </em>is curated by <strong>Sean Dockray</strong>, <strong>Dr James Parker</strong>, and <strong>Joel Stern </strong>(all Australia).</p>
