Employing a wide variety of props, from the iPad, transducers and audio speakers, to piano wires, helium balloons and even her own breath, a whole range of sounds, vibrations and frequencies come into play.<\/p>\n<p>She is persistently questioning what she calls &#8220;the ownership of sound&#8221; and highlighting the parameters, social values and sets of rules based around that which is constantly present and yet invisible to us all.<\/p>\n<p>Her work has been exhibited and performed worldwide in venues such as the Museum of Modern Art; LEAP, Berlin; the Hull House Museum in Chicago; MoMA PS1, New York; nyMusikk, Oslo; Sound Live Tokyo, Tokyo; Southern Exposure, San Francisco; Art Basel in Hong Kong; and many more.<\/p>\n<p>An ASL interpreter will be provided with generous support from APSU\u2019s Disability Services.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on this lecture, contact Michael Dickins, gallery director, at <a href=\"mailto:dickinsm@apsu.edu\">dickinsm@apsu.edu<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Clarksville, TN &#8211; The Austin Peay State University Department of Art and Design, with support from the APSU Center of Excellence for the Creative Arts, is pleased to welcome sound artist and two-time TED Fellow Christine Sun Kim to campus for a visiting artist lecture.
