AMANDA BELANTARA

Ears Are Dazzled

Une sélection d’enregistrements, certains non édités, d’autres composés, tous captés dans des moments de partage avec des personnes qui ont contribué à m’ouvrir à de nouvelles façons de penser et d’écouter.
A.Belantara

A collection of recordings, some unedited, some composed, each captured during moments shared people who opened my ears to new sounds and ways of thinking.

 

1/ Ears Are Dazzled (excerpts from 耳がキュッとなる)
BO de mon film, Ears are Dazzled, touched by sound. Le film a été inspiré par des recherches portant sur le rôle du son dans la vie quotidienne et ses applications pour acquérir une compréhension plus profonde de l’expérience humaine, le documentaire expérimental a été réalisé en collaboration avec les habitants de Yamaguchi au Japon. Les participants du projet ont convenu de conserver des journaux sonores qui comprenaient des sons qui ont une importance particulière dans leur vie quotidienne. Les images et les sons des journaux ont été enregistrés en collaboration, créant une acoustimologie partagée; explorant la relation entre les sons et l’imagination et le rôle que le son joue dans l’élaboration des constructions quotidiennes.

Audio from my film, Ears are Dazzled, touched by sound. The film was inspired by research addressing the role of sound in everyday life and its applications for gaining a deeper understanding of human experience, the experimental documentary was made in collaboration with locals in Yamaguchi, Japan. Participants in the project agreed to keep sound diaries that included sounds which hold a special relevance in their daily lives. The images and sounds from the diaries were recorded collaboratively, creating a shared acoustemology; exploring the relationship between sounds and the imagination and the role that sound plays in shaping constructions of the everyday.

2/ Cataloging (excerpt from Archives of Sound)
En travaillant la manifestation d’une expression illustrée par un élément,  chaque fichier audio archivé nécessite des descriptions. Les descriptions doivent respecter les normes élaborées par des groupes de personnes qui peuvent ou non comprendre votre travail.

Street crossings in Japan often play melodies to indicate when it’s safe for pedestrians to cross.
