Bernhard Leitner: P.U.L.S.E.: Spaces in Time / Räume der Zeit (2008) [English/German]
Filed under book | Tags: · architecture, art, installation art, sculpture, sound, sound art, space
Bernhard Leitner (*1938) is an artist widely known for his sound sculptures and sound installations. P.U.L.S.E. documents a range of his works made between 1999 and 2008.
“Sound spaces are not simply spaces in which sounds can be heard, but rather, where sounds first create the space, shaping its special characteristics. Audio events can create not only a special experience of the external, surrounding space, they can also make it possible to experience physical space as ‘internal’ space. Leitner’s work leads to acoustic qualities (of space) that remain hidden in the stream of stimuli, and it shows us opportunities for sensuous experience that we are barely aware of, since they have been lost or because their potential has remained unrecognized.” (Cathrin Pichler)
Texts by Boris Groys, Detlef B. Linke, Peter Weibel, conversation with the artist by Stefan Fricke.

Comment (0)eContact! 16(4): Experimental Practices and Subversion in Sound (2015)
Filed under journal | Tags: · experimental music, music, noise, sculpture, sound, sound art, subversion, turntablism
“The ephemeral and varied character of subversion in musical creation makes it a challenging, complex concept to clearly define and illustrate. In this issue it is approached and reflected upon via a range of experimental practices with turntables, tapes and other devices, fringe genres, sound sculptures, and alternative models of music distribution.”
