Errant Sound Reader

Bringing together work from one of Europe’s most dynamic centers of sound art

The artist-run center Errant Bodies opened its project space in 2010 in Berlin, and since 2016 has operated under the title Errant Sound, dedicated to experimental sound work: performance, fieldwork, voice, radio and spatial practices. Through residencies, workshops, events and exhibitions, Errant Sound emphasizes an engagement with process and dialogue, encouraging a dynamic and diverse approach to the sound arts. Errant Sound Reader brings together essays, interviews and documentation of projects by artists and researchers associated with Errant Sound. Over the years this has included a range of exhibition projects, performance events, discursive formats and collaborative initiatives that investigate sound in diverse ways and through a variety of mediums. From spatial sound, interactive electronics and sonic sculpture to experimental voice, radio and performance practices, the publication offers critical insight into creative methods and discourses central to the field of sound art.
