Investigation – Loïc Blairon & Marc Baron

Loïc and Marc are proposing a series of investigations into the tension between improvisation and recording and how it can be used to engage with different spaces and environments around Dundee. So, with you, they want to think about:the situation for improvisation; the situation for recording; the goal of improvisation; the goal of recording improvisation; the individual proposal of everybody involved; thinking and developing your own music; reflecting on the recording of your proposals.

What we said at the time:

All of these investigations will produce knowledge (we hope). We’ll end each investigation group with a reflection on what has been done that day and what could be done the next. This will be documented to form an organically growing accumulation of knowledge in Gallery 1 at DCA.

We’ll also use this space, along with Ultra-red, to meet up with our colleagues in community organising, activism and arts education from across Dundee, and give it over to them to use too.

So when it’s not being used for listening sessions or work with specific groups, It’ll be open to you as a kind of evolving investigation of ideas. Feel free to drop in, and check out what’s been going on, which may or may not include: screeds of filpchart paper and text, audio recordings of Dundee, proposals for how to develop KYTN next, and the like…..An exhibition of dialogue.
