Feature Stories

Philip Samartzis talks to artist Madelynne Cornish about the trials and tribulations of sonically documenting the Finnish winter landscape during her residency at the Serlachius Museum in Mänttä.

Background: Madelynne Cornish is an audiovisual artist and curator. She documents the effects of climate on natural and constructed environments, and the social dynamics informing remote communities. Her multi-layered artworks are reflections of how humans engage with, and shape their environment. In addition to her practice Madelynne is the co- founder and director of operations for the Bogong Centre for Sound Culture [B–CSC], an independent arts initiative that facilitates a broad cultural program comprising, artist residencies, exhibitions, publications and masterclasses. The B–CSC’s upcoming event is the winter masterclass The Art of Field Recording. This five day intensive masterclass will be led by Douglas Quin [US] and Philip Samartzis [AU]. The masterclass runs from July 1 to 5, 2019 at Howmans Gap, Victoria. #bogongsound @bogongsound #bcsc #douglasquin #philipsamartzis #howmansgap #polar #fieldrecording #soundart #antarctica #masterclass #production#deeplistening #acousticecology #soundscape #electroacousticcomposition #phonography #ethnography #serlachiusresidency #mänttäartfestival

Background: Quin’s practice includes soundscape compositions, public radio commentator and music composer . He is renowned for his groundbreaking work in Antarctica where he travelled to explore and document its varied, sonic environments – from seals communicating beneath sheets of ice to the shifting and cracking noise of the ice itself. A career highlight was creating the sound design for and mixing Werner Herzog's Academy Award–nominated documentary film about Antarctica, Encounters at the End of the World. Quin is currently in Australia as a Visiting Fellow at the UTAS. In July Quin will work alongside Philip Samartzis and lead Bogong Centre for Sound Culture’s 5 day winter masterclass, which runs from July 1 to 5, 2019 at Howmans Gap, Victoria. #bogongsound @bogongsound #douglasquin #philipsamartzis #howmansgap
