A retrospective exhibition launching the Jonathan Collinson Memorial Sound Library.
10-16 May 2015
St. Margaret's Church of Art
This project has been inspired by an archive of binaural sound recordings left following the death of their creator, sound artist Jonathan Collinson in 2014. The event will include a sound installation of selected recordings, an exhibition of visual records of Jon's wo
rk in live literature and music events and a series of talks, performances and visual work by friends of the artist exploring the concepts of digital footprint, psychogeographical walking and the beneficial effect on mental well-being of engaging with nature, immersive site recordings and simulated or cognised landscape. The Jonathan Collinson Memorial Sound Library will be an online archive of recordings for use in new projects. We hope the archive will provide a unique resource to artists, therapists, sound recordists, musicians and to theatre, radio and film projects. The sounds will be free to use provided that users credit the archive in the work produced. We will be collecting donations for Mind The Gap, a community project based in Norwich, producing music groups and events for young people with depression and mental health issues, and for Mind, the mental health charity.
