FOKN Bois: Rapping Against the Common Sense (Seismographic Sounds)

Download it: MP3 | AAC | OGG | OPUS

Musicians and Sound Artists all over the world make themselves heard through Soundcloud, YouTube and Twitter. Their tracks, video clips and audio collages challenge known forms and ideals and propose Visions of a New World. They offer surprising, smart and provocative perspectives that are simultaneously reduced, salient and profound. Norient highlights these contemporary artistic positions and argues about their potential and limits with journalists, bloggers, artists and scholars from different places and cultures of knowledge. The book and exhibition Seismographic Sounds introduces people behind the scenes in experimental audio podcasts. The project counters pessimistic views that globalisation and digitalisation has led to cultural uniformity and the destruction of the world’s musical heritage.
