Charlottenborg Art Talk: Maile Colbert
Kunsthal Charlottenborg
Wednesday May 30. 5 - 7 PM
Maile Colbert designs and composes sound for and from the past, to consider what knowledge and applications can be gained from the concept, and to expand sound design for cinematic and artistic works through time, space, and place.
For the art talk Maile Colbert presents her research on sound, proposing that the relationship between our soundscape and sound design can give key information about how we listen, what we listen for, and what that can tell us.
