Abstract

The work is influenced by Michel Serres research concerning the senses (2008) and by a paper by Eliot Bates in which he argues “that in order to understand the production of affect, or perhaps the affect of production, we need to pay attention to bodies, to the senses, to the practices of audio engineering and musicianship” (2009). In this video essay then I choose to pay attention to these bodies, and very specifically on the hands, using video footage of participants in my 'Super Volume' project. Watching the videos of my participant’s listening and responding to their own audio mixes, I was fascinated by how expressive their hands were and how affective they were in these moments. The elegant, performative quality of the hand movements drew me towards an initial poetic engagement with the footage set to 'De natura sonoris no. 2' by Penderecki.
