LYD Writing Research Residencies
The two inaugural LYD Writing Research Residencies, supported and hosted by Lydgalleriet Bergen and curated by Daniela Cascella, begin this autumn.
Guest researchers for 2015/2016 are Dominique Hurth and Natasha Soobramanien.
As a follow-up and expansion of 2014’s Writing Sound Bergen, this project aims to explore a number of intersections, interactions and interferences that may occur between listening, reading, writing, translating, recording, silencing, conversing, with focus on performative and collaborative approaches and with emphasis on discursive and reflexive aspects.
During the Research Residencies, Daniela will work in parallel with Dominique and Natasha to develop a series of public outcomes in 2016.
