Acoustic topographies: preservation as a creative act - Explorations of Argentina's acoustic and sound heritage through listening and technology
Damian Payo | Universidade Católica de Salta
Acoustic Topographies invites to explore the acoustic and sound heritage of a series of spaces in Argentina through a prism that not only considers traditional preservation and conservation methods, but also integrates the creative act in the reconstruction of spaces and sound cultures. This seminar presents research and creative approaches considering specific acoustically unique spaces on a journey that combines geography with sound and musical practices, with the aim of preserving, recreating and resurrecting sound memories.
Damian Payo | Graduated in Music and Technology, Damian Payo is a lecturer at the Universidad Católica de Salta (Argentina) who develops research projects that bridges acoustics, musical anthropology and artistic creation. His work considers space as a central element, including both its acoustic properties and historical use in relation to the soundscape that inhabits it. He has carried out several post-productions for music videos and albums in Argentina and since 2017, he has been working as a director and producer on sound installations, audiovisual works and immersive sound design.
