Shared Listening
A workshop with Bea Targosz, supported by Anastasia Putsykina (InKüLe)
Discover the art of field recording and sound processing in this interactive workshop open to students from all departments—no prior experience required. Learn how to record and edit soundscapes, explore new ways of listening, and integrate sound into your artistic practice.
Planned for spring, the workshop begins with outdoor fieldwork in the areas surrounding the university. Participants will go on a guided walk to engage in direct listening and capture ambient sounds using professional equipment such as recorders, headphones, and microphones. In the second part, we’ll move indoors to process the collected recordings using Audacity (free software). Through hands-on editing exercises and group listening sessions, you’ll gain insight into how working with sound can shift your perception and reveal new creative possibilities.
Requirements:
- Students need to bring a laptop with Audacity installed (free software, download here https://www.audacityteam.org/).
- If you can't bring your own laptop, please note it in the registration form.
Details:
- Teaching language: English
- Who can join: Open to UdK students from all disciplines
- The workshop is planed with time for a lunch break

The Im/materialities workshop series comes from an open call for student-led workshops initiated and supported by InKüLe.
In the digital age, boundaries between material and immaterial worlds are increasingly blurred. Today's hybrid materialism challenges us to rethink the nature of matter and the ways in which our digital and physical realities interact. In this shifting landscape, how do digital technologies shape the materiality of objects, bodies or environments?
In the second edition of the InKüLe open call, it brings together a series of student-led workshops initiated and supported by InKüLe. Students are invited to propose a workshop topic they're currently researching in related to Im/materialities. InKüLe co-curates selected proposals, providing technical support, spatial organisation and general planning of the workshop. The workshops are open to students from all UdK departments to participate, offering a place for transdisciplinary exploration and exchange.
