The Making of 'Commotion'

“Commotion” is a fixed media multichannel composition that revolved around the principles of minimalist music. This exposition aims at understanding these principles while it tries to place the process of composing the piece within the common premises of artistic research. Due to the nature of its context, this approach includes also theories of reception - mostly by exploring themes such as intentionality, interpretation and representation. With this exposition, the author shares technical terminology of sound practices, in order to promote it in contexts predominantly visual-oriented.
Fractured Photography

Is it possible to communicate through photography about people in distress? Through this exposition we approach such issues as media imagery and image fatigue, photography of ‘the other’, the privileged position, significant encounters, and reciprocity. We also show how commitment to social issues may relate to such an artistic process as both starting point and outcome. Finally, as this process was a collaboration between art and social science, we explore the roles and processes of such a collaboration, and exhibit the outcomes of the artistic process both as art and as a form of data for academic inquiry.
