05. July | 17:00 | Guest Lecture: Raviv Ganchrow (US/NL): »sono-spatiality«
[In cooperation with the Dilthey-Fellowship »Theorie und Geschichte auditiver Medien (Medienkultur/IKKM)]
Raviv Ganchrow’s work focuses on interrelations between sound and space which he explores through sound installations, the development of sound-forming technologies such as wave field synthesis, as well as writing and curating. His work addresses the ambiguous nature of sound that is at once material-spatial and temporal-ephemeral. Recent installations directly engage the every-day acoustic environment, plumbing notions of ‘place’ that are constructed by way of frequency interdependencies between sound, location and listener. In his work Crescents (2010), for instance, an accumulation of time-delayed acoustic reflections establish a series of arced resonances between listeners, the structure of a hydroplane hanger and sonic remnants from that site. In 2010 he began a multi-format project titled Listening Subjects concerning the coexistence of multiple, at times contradictory, acoustemologies shaping contemporary configurations of listening.
Raviv Ganchrow completed his architectural studies at the Cooper Union, New York and received a second degree from the Institute of Sonology at The Royal Conservatory, The Hague. He has been teaching architectural design in the graduate program at TU Delft (studio Border Conditions), and is currently a faculty member at the Institute of Sonology where he teaches two courses: Sound and Space and Aural Tectonics.
