Soundwalk

Soundwalk The official page for the LB FLOOD's Sound Art events: soundpedro 2017-present & Soundwalk 2004-2013 Hear the art and meet the artists.

FLOOD currently produces the annual sound art festival, soundpedro, in partnership with Angels Gate Cultural Center in San Pedro, CA. Normally taking place on-site at AGCC, the 2020/2021 editions took place solely online. SoundWalk was a free annual one-night event of sound installations by local and international sound artists held in Long Beach, Ca since 2004. Soundwalk took place throughout 4th

St, Linden Ave, First Street and Elm Ave. Produced and curated by the artist cooperative FLOOD, SoundWalk transformed the sidewalks, storefronts, parking lots, parks and bus stops of downtown Long Beach’s dynamic East Village community into postmodern auditory works of art. Visitors found themselves in a city space converted into a sonic canvas on which artists will transformed the way guests explored the East Village. This was Southern California’s premier sound art event which combines a curiosity of noise, urban exploration, and interactive art. Hotels, bars, restaurants, and coffee shops accommodate your visit to the neighborhood. The City of Long Beach has a goal to be the most bicycle friendly urban city in the country. FLOOD encourages artists and visitors to not only ride their bicycles to the event but also use them to the explore the larger area of this year’s event. The neighborhood is only one block away from the end of Metro Blue line. Secure bicycle parking is available. Metered car parking is available on the street. Additional parking is also available in the parking lot at the NE corner of Broadway and Elm Ave and the SW corner of Linden and 4th at Fingerprints. About FLOOD

Join us for the sights and sounds opening reception of
MINGLE MANGLE
May 13th, 1 - 3:30 PM

Nine Angels Gate Cultural Center Studio Artists and their collaborators respond to the concept of sound intake.
These artists work in a variety of media, including: various printmaking techniques, sculpture, video, assemblage, handmade instruments, built ecosystems, and sound media.
A narrative soundtrack is composed mostly of impressionistic reflections, by the artists about their pieces. The visitor is invited, through attuned listening, to explore iridescent and shifting overlaps, as the nonspecificity of reflection mingles with the concrete presence of art. What results may veer between conceptual amplification and a tangy mangle of misplaced perceptions.

stream of (un)consciousness
Mount Shasta’s heavy association with spirituality draws us to investigate its landscape and soundscape both artistically and philosophically. We collect footage and field recordings around Shasta-Trinity National Forest. We transform materials gathered to create a dialogue between the natural and digital realm. Our performance explores and maximizes the possibility of environmental sound, hence expanding listening modes. The soundscape provides us a source to navigate between ambiance and noise; while the footage, through heavy distortion and glitching, opens up an altered reality for viewers to probe into. The visual is done through the misuse and overloading of software to create glitches. Such an experimental approach opens up a new way of perception for viewers.

A four-channel audiovisual installation version of this project is on view at Root Division Gallery, San Francisco from 11/2 to 11/30—as part of the show “you can hear the wind from under the floorboards” curated by Katherine Hamilton and Shaelyn Hanes.

Listening with my father
This project is a meditation on navigating my father's rapid loss of hearing and collaborating together as a improviser and composer and listeners. My father has worked with heavy machinery most his life, loves music, and loves to listen to and to tell stories. Navigating hearing loss informs our work together and new ways of listening/composing. This new work is a meditation on the visual as sound and ways to listen through hearing loss. These new visual and sonic scores emerge from working with new ways to communicate through sound via listening with my father.

Amabelle Aguiluz will offer Agî, a sound performance, within her art installation at Flux Art Space, Long Beach. Agî (meaning current), will explore how water heals the body and mind. The project focuses on harmonic frequencies of water sounds that can alter states of consciousness, inclining the mind toward calm, peace, and relaxation.

"Where We Go From Her" & "Performance For Two"
Two videos by Amanda Maciel Antunes

Our first soundpedro2022 ACE [artist curated event] for this season.

Video presentation rolls out on Sunday, September 7th at noon on the ACE 2022 page https://www.soundpedro.org/ace-2022:

Where We Go From Here
How does the perceived permanence or temporality of our location affect us? Where We Go From Here is a film and performance intended to recreate the experience of being in different places at the same time.

Where We Go From Here video was shot between 2018-2019 during residences in the Amazon, Brazil, and the artist's migration to Los Angeles. The footage was all recorded with a cellphone. Sound is a collection of fieldwork between these various locations.

This video is an artifact of time in migration. And it supports a live performance of the same name. First Half of the film is a single journey in time, followed by the second half which leads the audience into a life performance.

Performance For Two
Often times, as artists, as immigrants, and as women, the source of strength which we need when the outer world fails us, comes from another woman. This video and soundscape create a place where I condense the interpretation of myths about our lives as immigrant women. I perform in conversation with my past self. And all the versions of that woman that led me to this present moment. What words get to be erased and what words get to be re-learned. In this process I proceed to identify and distinguish between the false selves that our culture has enforced on us, and the true parts of my womanhood which I want to preserve. In this film I work with a poem I titled "What is Blasphemy?" in response to receiving my American Citizenship, and in the promise of becoming a citizen I uttered words I could not stand behind. I reflect on these promises I've made to survive and the promises made as illusions.
