Allied Media Conference

What defines sonic necessity? Luke Stewart and Thomas Stanley are D.C.-based performers and broadcasters who have built institutions that promote an audio culture that transcends the merely musical, while avoiding pitfalls of spectacle, trend, or institutional cool. This workshop will include an artist talk followed by improvised performance. Participants will gain a practical and experiential understanding of the role of non-idiomatic sonic activism in bringing harmony to transitioning contested social space and modeling ontic horizons.
