their websites at http://www.wyness.org and http://www.khora.org.uk.
/*Listening through Holy Week*/
The piece focuses on sounds recorded during Seville's Holy Week
processions in 2007 and 2008. The sounds of the processions are
interleaved with unscripted (conversational) dialogue between the
producers recorded during Holy Week 2008. The subjectivity of the
conversational excerpts raises questions about the objectivity of
recorded sound within the documentary process.
Taking the Holy Week processions of Seville as subject matter, the
listener is invited to explore acoustic communication within a
specific human social context. The piece sets out to reveal the
underlying syntax of sound within processions: musical elements,
symbolic uses of sound, aural and verbal cues, crowd dynamics and
performance features.
The complete field recordings from which the submitted work draws
are to be archived as a new collection by the British Library.
Whitley and Wyness began collaborating on the Seville 2007 project
following a lengthy period of research. Their collaboration was
based on a mutual interest in investigating archive and documentary
forms through the medium of sound. This, combined with experience in
different areas of sonic art research, led to the development of
multi-channel field recording techniques adapted to the specific
conditions of public processions.
/
For// Holy Week: Seville 2007 (scenes)/ Whitley and Wyness adopted
the use of two customised portable and mobile field recording rigs.
The recordists took up carefully selected positions on the streets
which offered the flexibility of capturing both the larger movement
of the processions through time and space and the minutiae of
specific details.
