PHOTOMOVIETEXTSOUND TEXT SOUNDTEXTMOVIEPHOTO TEXTPHOTOMOVIESOUND We are going to produce photographic films. Excursion November 6th – November 11th, 2016. Colditz Castle (Germany)

Department of Language Arts at the University of Applied Arts Vienna in cooperation with Experimental Radio / Soundart Bauhaus University of Weimar and Department of Design / College Mannheim

Interdisciplinary cooperation.

Sound artists are going to connect to authors. Together they will get skills in the field of producing photographic films – i.e. movies based on photographs. In different groups connected to each other, they are going to compose a photographic film-sound-text-work out of sounds, texts and photographs.

Text Department of Language Arts, Prof. Esther Dischereit (Vienna) Sound Experimental Radio Sound Art, Martin Hirsch and Astrid Drechsler (Weimar) Photographic film Katja Pratschke (Photo film and media artist, Berlin) // Syllabus: 1. free choice // 2. project // We received an e-mail from a shelter for asylum seekers: We were asked if it would be possible for us as artists to deal with the the conditions of everyday life or to transform them – now, after the escape. Everything that could come to mind could be of interest. We want to try this and, by doing so, see if we can either be the subject of a field study or be the expert working with the affected people. We will see what the results be.

Projects: mainly fictional, odd, surreal, grotesque, tragic, using methods of fiction. Reseach-projects are also possible. // Participants of the MORE programme at the University of Applied Arts are welcome to join the course. // IMPORTANT INFOMATION: The course is limited to 20 participants, 10 of them coming from the Department of Language Arts or/and the MORE-programmes // No previous knowledge in the fields of photography and film is expected.
