Occasion In The Snowstorm
Screening at MEET Digital Culture Centre / Milan, Italy / Sonic Simulator Game / 2024
Robinson called "hungry listening" in specific reference to settler colonial forms of perception that seek to "civilise" or "settle" Indigenous sounds. "civilise" or "settle" Indigenous sounds. And it echo to a pattern of contemporary information system, where perception is alienated towards analytical and linear way, a form could be recorded by machines, a machine-recordable way. The game create a blizzard scene where the character is walking in solitude. Chance sound track is triggered and remixed via player’s unpredicted operation，which return the authority of sound production to the player. In the preposterous and disorientating game world, endless noise and aimless action trap the player in the occasion of snowstorm.
"Gaming as Method of Sound Production" is Winner of Gdańsk Artathon concept competition of Łaźnia Centre for Contem- porary Art (Gdańsk, Poland), as part of Augmented Europe funded by the European Commission’s Executive Agency for Education, Audiovisual and Culture (EACEA).
