On occasion of the release of EDITION III,
SoundLab Channel was completely re-constructed.
It includes and features three curatorial contributions
of works of sound & radio art

a) from Australia curated by Michael Yuen (Adelaide/Australia)
b) from Germany curated by Peter Wolf (Cologne/Germany)
c) based on an open call curated by Melody Parker-Carter (Cologne/Germany)

********************************************

a) soundart from Australia curated by Michael Yuen
who selected soundart by these artists
Thomas Reiner, Lawrence English,
Somaya Langley, Robert Sazdov
Sebastian Tomczak, Stephen Gard

Curatorial statement:-->
Australia has a vibrant sound and experimental art community. By distance and cultural heritage
Australia is a vast and isolated nation. With the ready integration of the Internet into our lives
and artistic practices, Australian artists have become connected with their cultural past while
reserving the right to observe from a distance. It has fallen to the current generation of artists
to embrace our tyranny of distance and celebrate the freedom that is afforded by our new world
conditions.

There are many signs that Australia has evolved from an infant nation towards a vibrant new world
community - the celebration of artistic freedom from the old; forced resourcefulness and
innovation by the lack of traditional arts infrastructure; rapid acceptances of new technologies
and techniques; the embracing of a national identity beyond iconicism; and the use of the old
world as a historical reference rather than a guide to the future.
The works assembled here are a reflection of sound art from around Australia celebrating these signs.

b) soundart from Germany curated by Peter Wolf


c) Based on an open call, Melody Parker-Carter (chief curator of SoundLab Channel)
