sonic bridge project (fwd)

[{ brad brace } <bbrace@xxxxxxxxxx>]

bridges are singing!!

calling for collaborators: sound artists, musicians and interested parties,
come and listen to, play or remix the sound of a bridge near you!

singing bridges is a sonic art work exploring the acoustic resonance of
bridges through the vibrations of bridge cables.
all over the world, bridges are raising their voices in an unheard
symphony.

"What if we were to stop and listen to the bridge, to its aches and cries,
the songs and stories of the people who have crossed over?

Maybe the cables are giant receivers, collecting all kinds of signals. The
humming on the lines, the random noise and static that spill over when we
communicate - from the overflow of telecommunications wires circling the
globe to unidentifiable frequencies from space.

Maybe the bridge catches the dreams of those who cross it, the sounds of
daily life on the lands and waters beneath. Can we tune in to the cables'
frequency and hear what they have to say?"

jodi rose is currently travelling the world bringing this sonic bridge
babel to an audible level.

Bridges have been played in the mekong delta, hue, hanoi, rotterdam, and
helsinki.

If you are in london, new york or san franciso and would like to
participate on the milleniumm, brooklyn, or golden gate bridges or if you
would like to receive a sound sample to remix, or simply to communicate,
please contact jodi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Many other locations will be visited at a later date, sponsors willing!

"Art can make us pay attention to the ordinary data that passes us by in
the flow of life. Bridges, like cities, hum, reverberate in the wind, creak
and strain. They have a sonic life."
Dr Karen Burns, The Centre for Ideas, VCA Melbourne.
