soundpedro2020schizophonia : Virtual Breakout During the Outbreak

Due to COVID-19 pandemic restrictions, soundpedro looks and sounds a little different this year. As we were not able to present onsite at Angels Gate Cultural Center, we approached soundpedro 2020 artists to reimagine their onsite installation into either a virtual experience or as a virtual performance sample. We are pleased to present them virtually, here at soundpedro.org.

What is Schizophonia?
Schizophonia is a term coined by R. Murray Schafer to describe the splitting of an original sound and its electroacoustic reproduction. This concept comes from the invention of electroacoustic equipment for the transmission of sound, which meant that any sound could be recorded and sent anywhere around the world.”


soundpedro 2020 ended on November 27th, the National Day of Listening. We celebrate over 100 artists and over 135 works that sounded out from June 6, 2020 to November 27th in soundpedro2020schizophonia : Virtual Breakout During the Outbreak.
A BIG THANK YOU to all who Participated in and Contributed to soundpedro 2020!
And Thank You for Listening!

November 27th
National Day of Listening : Thank You

"These are times, when there seems to be only the horrendous symmetry of perfect uncertainty, with the hope that if one survives, then all can survive, but, the despair, that if one falls, all will fall. Life continues on, no matter what. Therefore, we must tap into our most decent collective self.
We must become one another and resolve that the struggle towards good should be an expression of beauty that no one will regret."
