Delighted to return to Vevey this week to work with @foodculturedays and agroecology collective @praz_bonjour as part of the series Practicing the Commons Aural Oral explores a meal in the form of sonic and performative research, offering a sensorial reflection on processes of cultivation and consumption. The meal pairs an auditory archive of its ingredients with its ingestion; each accompanying track sketches a sonic cartography of the dish, amplifying the micro actions of the farm and the kitchen while proposing resonant reflections of its cultivation and consumption to extend beyond the domain of the gustatory. The performance is in collaboration with local producers and farmers in the bioregion of Vevey, primarily the agro-ecology collective Praz Bonjour. This iteration of the series includes a sonic collaboration between Grace Denis and the project Sounding Soil, using a specific microphone developed by artist-researcher Marcus Maeder to explore subterranean soundscapes. This collaboration is in partnership with Biovision, a Swiss organization dedicated to ecological development. Aural Oral will be served in Yugen Stonewares by the artist Yusuké Y Offhause @offhause * Initially to be presented at the foodculture days 2021 biennale, Aural Oral had to be canceled at the time due to COVID related concerns. This version of the project has been reimagined to focus on the soundscapes, recorded by Grace Denis during her residency in May 2021. Public event, with reservation.
