School of Media, Culture and Society, UWS presents Azimuth: Sound/Image

The exhibition and associated programme of events explore the creative tension and interplay between Sound and Image. Artists engage with possible ways of narration whether guided or enhanced, altered or disrupted through the Sound/Image interface or explored solely through a sense of hearing or a sense of sight.

The Symposium - Exploring the Human Sensorium through Sound/Image - features screenings, talks and live demonstrations, and will open the exhibition on Wednesday 7 December in the CCA Cinema. The screenings are open to the public and will run 10am-6pm from 7-11 December.

This event is organised in association with the research project, Engaging the Human Sensorium through Art and New Technologies, funded by the Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation that builds on uses of digital technologies in contemporary art, creating opportunities for new knowledge, artistic and technological exchange, featuring artists’ works and device art demos from Japan and Scotland. The exhibition travelled from IA Gallery, Tokyo Metropolitan University and Miraikan - National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation in Tokyo where it was showcased between 21-28 April 2016.
