[Af_List] CALL OUT FROM PHIL DADSON:

[Admin]

CALL OUT FROM PHIL DADSON:

Another call for participants:   TOK TOK   (Melanesian pidgin for  
conversation)

(The HUMAN INSTRUMENT ARCHIVE)

The human body is the first instrument, with a sonic potential every  
bit as diverse and unique as the human body itself. Worldwide, we  
explore the sounds we can make with our bodies, often learning or  
discovering something personal in childhood that is carried forward  
and perfected as a sonic quirk and skill. Such sounds can transcend  
language and instantly communicate qualities of surprise, awe and  
humour.

The Human Instrument Archive is an ongoing collection of the unique  
sounds people can produce with their bodies, recorded direct to  
video. Some 40 recordings have been made so far. An art work focused  
around the idea of communication that transcends language will  
eventually be developed from the archive.

Anyone, with a sonic quirk or skill to perform can participate.

The recording is made in private without any other audience than the  
camera and the operator (myself). Recordings are archived with the  
permission of the participant and the understanding that your rights  
and privacy are respected at all times.

Each recorded performance will be credited with a name (real or  
fictional), unless otherwise directed by the performer involved.

If you have a unique body-sound to contribute, please email your  
interest to me at dadsonic at xtra.co.nz and we can discuss details  
about upcoming recording sessions, soon to be held in an easy-to-find  
Auckland central-city location.

hoping to hear you,

Phil Dadson
