Kill Your Timid Notion
A step across the border between sound and image
A festival of experiment sound-film/ music-image
Dundee Contemporary Arts
10-12 Oct 08

Your eyes see what, like 10 or 15 images a second; that¹s 10Hz.  Your ears can hear 15,000 Hz. Surely there must be something interesting in this incongruity.

Now in it¹s 6th edition, KYTN is one of Europe¹s leading festivals of sound and image.  It¹s all about exploring the many different ways we navigate the borders, disparities and similarities between what we hear and what we see. It involves some of the great experimental artists, musicians and filmmakers of our time, and some of the not too distant future also.  It features some hard as nails experimental work, but it¹s an experience any right minded person should enjoy, be confounded by, have an opinion about at least. features: sine wave charcoal drawing, blindfolded listening, visual harmonics, optical sound, video-radio-guitar feedback, the Tay bridge, a sonic photograph of a Dalmatian fishing village, tiny rice paper flags, set theory...
