Going Out – Walking, Listening, Soundmaking is out now Published by Q-O2/umland editions, edited by Elena Biserna
Following a wonderful book launch last weekend, Going Out is now available for purchase via Les Presses Du Réel. Via the same link you can also find the table of contents, the introduction, part of the essay by Elena Biserna, and many other previews. We know that Christmas present recommendations are a bit corny, but hey…
Going Out explores the relationship between walking, listening, and soundmaking in the arts – from the first soundwalks and itinerant performances in the 1960s to today’s manifold ambulatory projects. The book consists of an extensive essay by Elena Biserna followed by an anthology of 51 historical and contemporary contributions in the form of documentation, essays, interviews, manifestos, scores, narratives and reflections.
