From Synaesthesia to Metaphor Sound and Image in Contemporary Art
From Synaesthesia to Metaphor Sound and Image in Contemporary Art
For KYTN we asked Christoph to come and give a sort of informal talk, raising some of his ideas about sound and image, and playing/ showing a few examples. Christoph also writes regularly on contemporary art and music for Artforum, The Wire, Cabinet, and other magazines. He’s written widely on sound art and also it’s relationship to visual culture and while we were researching the festival we came across an article by him that really chimed with how we were thinking about the programme.
