Cartolina 27 March 2013


Wine critic and sound artist Jo Burzynska tells of her two projects: the first one, made using noises re-corded during the Christchurch February Earthquake in 2011. The second one, realized using noises recorded at a winery in Italy. These were then presented at a festival in Campania. We play extracts from both Bodywaves and Oenosthesia
