Blandina, Gaia (2023) Collages and inventories, patatoilets and tents; a portfolio of sound art works and radiophonic essays. PhD thesis, University of York.
Abstract
This portfolio contains a series of creative works and radiophonic essays, and an accompanying written commentary. The creative works combine various media, art practices and disciplines; this results in configurations that take form as installations, performances, or events. The works include elements from music, sound art, and visual art practices, as well as strategies and methodologies from composing, collaborating, devising, improvising, collaging, archiving and curating. Both the creative works and the radiophonic essays have significant theoretical and philosophical components; these are treated as creative material rather than conceptual background and as theoretical support for the creative practice. The philosophy and writings of Deleuze, Hume, Bergson, Foucault, Bachelard, and Jarry are embedded in the artworks. The main interest of this portfolio is to explore a cyclical, fluid, and non-hierarchical relationship between theory and practice. The aim is to create a body of work within the field of sound art and to develop idiosyncratic strategies that can be innovative and useful for other creative practitioners and researchers. The radiophonic essays creatively express and examine the links between theory and practice in the creative works; this format is chosen for its non-linearity and flexibility, mirroring the structure and approach used in the pieces. The commentary discusses how the portfolio and radiophonic essays fit within a broader field of sound art as well as giving insights about the research elements embedded in the creative work.
