- Description
- This portfolio contains 'A Rhythmic Acknowledgment for walking experiences' & 'A Rhythmic Acknowledgment: Simone Young Conducts Tchaikovsky’s Ballet Music'. 'A Rhythmic Acknowledgment for walking experiences' soundscape was created during the lockdown in September 2021. A Rhythmic Acknowledgment for Walking Experiences is based on four different sound sources. These sounds sources include natures rhythms, clapstick corroboree rhythms based on the Gumberry Jah song, the ambiguous rhythms of the digeridoo, and an improvised clapstick rhythmic response to MAP mima’s Awabakal Country. These four sound sources are triggered by those walking past the sensors along the northern wall of the MAP mima building. The sound sources take a symphony-like approach; meaning each sound source has been created to blend with the next, and the speed at which those walking past will determine how one experiences this rhythmic acknowledgment. The rhythms performed by Manning on the clapsticks have been specifically captured to reference rhythms from early documented NSW corroborees (rhythms that once echoed out on our lands) or as modern rhythmic responses to Country. This work was extended by an invited performance with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, 'A Rhythmic Acknowledgment: Simone Young Conducts Tchaikovsky’s Ballet Music' in 2023.
