Event Description

Piano Tacet is a found poem comprised of the non-dialogue sounds from Jane Campion's 1993 film The Piano, which tells the story of a mute pianist in mid-19th century New Zealand. The work consists of the closed captions for the hearing impaired, with the piano sounds removed, read by the artist.

Dave Dyment is a Toronto-based artist, writer, and curator. His research-based conceptualism often involves obsessive collecting and cataloguing of cultural data. His work has been included in exhibitions in Calgary, Dublin, Edmonton, Halifax, New York City, Philadelphia, Chicago, and Varna, Bulgaria, to name but a few. Also known for his curatorial work during his tenures as director of both Art Metropole and Mercer Union, in 2008 he was the curator of Zone C for Toronto’s Nuit Blanche. He is co-founder and director of Nothing Else Press, a publisher of artists’ multiples and books, and he maintains the blog Artists’ Books and Multiples on a daily basis. In 2012, YYZ published One for Me and One to Share: Artists’ Multiples and editions, which he co-edited with Gregory Elgstrand.

Not All There project description

Not All There is a series of sound art works presented in succession over a six-month period from January until June 2014. These works all deal with music (obliquely or directly) and absence (as a device or concept). The title is a reference to this absence but also to sound’s non-materiality, while also being a play on the perception of cognitive dysfunction in oneself or others. Many of the works investigate ideas of what “there” might be and what it means to be both “there” and “not all there.”

More about Audiospace

To celebrate its tenth year since its inception, Audiospace 10 is doing something completely different: it is leaping out of the digital and into the physical. Audiospace 10 is a new exhibition space, dedicated to sound, located at Open Space Art Society’s exhibition space in Victoria. This new space is a physical manifestation, with some tweaks and adjustments, of the online program of the same name now celebrating its tenth year. “Audiospace was developed when it was novel to have audio on the Internet. For the tenth year of this biennial program, we wanted to find a way to reinvigorate the exploration of digital sound. Bringing a digital program into the physical seemed like the most innovative solution,” said New Music Coordinator Christopher Reiche. The task of curating this new platform was given to Victoria’s Paul Walde, who assembled the work in Not All There.
