This year AGYU commissioned a series of audio works by artists for our new series Audio Out. The series begins with Jessica Thompson, who relives her days of York with an interactive sound installation sampling everyday noise from the busy hallways. Jon Sasaki, just getting warmed up, eavesdrops on AGYU’s neighbouring music students, Gwen MacGregor and Lewis Nicholson patiently mark the passing of time with their new collaborative work, and Janice Gurney will be meditating on meditations. Wrapping it up in April, fourth year Fine Art students will produce a compilation of audio works directed by professor Marc Couroux.
