ABOUT

Warrick Sony – composer, producer and creator of the Kalahari Surfers – presents two lectures that emerged from a sound/video art exhibition that Sony presented as part of the 2022 Radio Art Residency at Bauhaus University, Weimar, Germany, and form part of his recently submitted PhD dissertation.


Seven events occurred in 1977, the year that Voyager space craft departed earth with its Golden Record with music from earth, that prompted the music theorists Alexander Rehding and Daniel K.L. Chua to pronounce 1977


“ the most important year in human history, if not the only year recorded…” 


Sony takes a philosophical jaunt through the interconnectivity's that bind music, poetry, sound and art into, what Osip Mandelstam called, “the noise of time.” 


“waiting for the gift of sound and vision” 

Bowie, Low (1977)


“ a new way of seeing and hearing“ 

Eaton Jah Biscuit
