The thematic tour Collective Memory and Sound explores how auditory experiences shape and reflect collective memory. Through distinct approaches, Matt Copson, Miloš Trakilović, and Jessica Ekomane create sonic spaces that connect personal narratives with broader cultural histories.
In Coming of Age. Age of Coming. Of Coming Age., Matt Copson draws from the tradition of opera, where song amplifies emotion, allowing personal stories to resonate within collective consciousness.
Miloš Trakilović examines Yugoslav music from 1989 to 1992, tracing echoes of the looming Bosnian War through close listening and technological interventions. For Not a Love Song, supported by AI, he transforms these sonic fragments into algorithmic links between past and present experiences.
Jessica Ekomane’s Antechamber invites reflection on how rhythm shapes perceptions of space, time, and the body. Her sound work functions as a social practice, intertwining sensory and cognitive dimensions to create shared moments of listening.
Together, these works reveal how sound can transcend time and context, transforming individual memories into collective experiences.
