SYNOPSIS

Traces of a short talk (from the project A tapping while walking)

Lucila Garza - (Mexico)

Trazos de una breve charla (del proyecto Un golpeteo al andar)

Performance intervention recorded on video focused on body movement and its influence on sound environments within the public space and the elements that make it up; the recording in question presents one of the various interventions that were made as part of “Un golpeteo al andar” project that pays special attention to the structures that make up the Rufino Tamayo Park in Monterrey, with an approach focused on amplifying and recording the sound possibilities of the same. It is an exploration that deals with the displacement of the body in contact with one of the natural elements belonging to the space as an agent that adds to the soundscape as an organic instrument.
