SONIC ECHOES and Escaping the Carceral: The Possibilities of Sound In Engaging Objects and Archives in the Museum
Sonic Echoes, curated by Lennon Mhishi, Lynhan Balatbat-Helbock and Laura Kloeckner, is a mash-up, remix and jam session that responds to sound archives and sounds locked in colonial containers, aiming to ignite and unleash their fire. Rather than reconstructing coherent sound lines or legacies, we aim to develop practices of genre refusal to understand the intersections of these archived sounds.
