WEB FOCUS – SONICTERRAIN

June 8, 2015 Feminatronic

As the site states –

“Sonic Terrain is dedicated to explore the reality of sound, encouraging to not just hearing it, but to listening to it (and recording it) for reflection, relaxation, art, science, etc, valuing sound as a fundamental element that is practiced and studied by an incredibly wide array of professions: laypeople, sound designers, multi-media artists, philosophers, musicians, scientists, researchers, ecology conservationists, educators and many more. That’s why Sonic Terrain aims to offer a place for those disciplines to be cross-pollinated in order to expose everyone to aspects of sound, recording and reality they may not have considered yet.”

A huge resource for all things sound and here are a couple of tasters:

Foundsoundscape: the (female) reboot – ))) Sound Reflections Blog

April 9, 2015 Feminatronic

Here is an interesting article from ))) Sound Reflections which is worth a visit

Recently I posted a round up of resources for female sound artists and audio engineers : the debate on whether there is a need for gender-specific resources remains open, but the fact remains that female artists in the field remain a minority, and remain under-represented.

FEMINATRONIC SUNDAY MIX – IN PRAISE OF TREES

April 5, 2015 Feminatronic

Each week I have a Sunday Mix on Twitter and thought I would reproduce them here.

For the next couple of weeks the Sunday Mix is going to be loosely based on American Poetry Month and this week as it was a beautiful Easter Day here the mix is in praise of Trees.
