FOGSTAND Gallery & Studio is excited to announce Guerrilla Language: WHERE YOU GO I GO TOO: Field Recording as Cartography, taking place from October to November 2016.

Guerrilla Language: WHERE YOU GO I GO TOO: Field Recording as Cartography continues FOGSTAND’s interest in place making/unmaking by attempting to re-engage the identity of aboriginal language through the concepts and methods of current “post-historical” contemporary art practices. Although difficult and atypical, it is rewarding to see how contemporary art’s struggle with self-definition can inspire the re-definition of aboriginal identity, by and for aboriginals.

While the previous Guerrilla Language Projects used methods such as Cut-Ups and Readymades, Guerrilla Language: WHERE YOU GO I GO TOO: Field Recording as Cartography will draw inspiration from the concept of the Field Recording, most famously used as sound effects in popular movies by people known as Foley Artists. While Field Recording has a rich tradition of preserving traditional culture (Ren Da), the Foley Artist as Field Recording Artist is more pervasive and invisible. So in order to fuse the two practices together, FOGSTAND is proposing a month long project that seeks out to highlight the “sound effects” that go on to complete the visual identity of Jai-Li village. It is often easier and more urgent to think of a town needing a visual map (google) in order to aid in people, both inside and outside, accessing and/or exiting a town. However, we often forget to think how sound plays a vital role into the imaging of a location. So, with the help of the local residents of Jai-Li village, FOGSTAND is working to create an audio-only map of Jai-Li village.

The actual program will consist in a month long project/performance realized within both the workshop space the gallery space by the local children and teenagers of Jai-Li Township. By utilizing professional sound recording and editing equipment/software, the project will take participants out into their village in order to capture a diverse selection of field recordings. Beyond simply recording the sound of, say, a hum of an air conditioner, the participant will also be required to fill out a form that catalogues the location of the sound, time of recording, the type of sound (natural or manmade), frequency of sound (continuous or only once a day) and other important information. These sounds will then be annotated onto a village map displayed in the workshop space. The result will be an enjoyable and informative sampling of the ambiance that makes the audio or Jai-Li’s visual presentation. In addition, and in keeping with the Foley Artist, the separation of sound from site will result in some sounds seeming entirely alien without context, or some will accurately evoke an image of the site.

While the workshop space will be buzzing with activity, including a fully annotated map of all the sounds captured by the participants that will refer to a binder containing all the forms that detail the recording information, the actual gallery will be visually empty. Instead, the gallery will be occupied by a random selection of sound recordings firing off at regular intervals. The result will be a sensory experience of all the sounds that go on to make Jai-Li, and in so doing, FOGSTAND Gallery & Studio.
