Amirtha Kidambi with HKU students
Amirtha Kidambi presents Outernational
Returning again this year is our ongoing collaboration with Utrecht Art Academy’s ‘Music & Technology’ department to produce an experimental showcase, which will be created and presented on Saturday the 8th at the city theatre. The Music & Tech students have been preparing, under guidance of Amitha Kidambi, a improv session based on Amirtha’s theory surrounding sonic liberation. A key question the students will explore are what are some of the ways that improvisation, collective creation and sonic experimentation can provide alternative models to social power structures such as colonialism, capitalism, imperialism, patriarchy (misogyny/queer+transphobia), ableism, nationality/immigration status etc? How can musical/sonic practice be liberatory?
