The score is interpreted from a library of voice sounds from colleagues collected by David Gauntlett and I and presented as part of the <i><a href="http://www.researchcreation.ca/the-institution-of-knowledge" target="_blank">Institution of Knowledge</a></i>, curated by Natalie Loveless and Geoffrey Rockwell, University of Alberta, May 2023. I'll be talking about it on Thursday, May 18 in a panel called <i><a href="http://www.researchcreation.ca/tiok-symposium-schedule" target="_blank">Being in the University: Shaping and Being Shaped</a></i>, with Lisa Ortiz-Vilarelle and Oliver Rossier, moderated by Natalie. </p><p><i>Sound of Wonder</i> is printed in 5 parts: creativity, wonder, knowledge, curiosity, joy. There is a signed edition of 5, each with 6 photographic prints on rag paper, printed front and back, 12" x 18" landscape on 3 sheets, like music in a loose leaf book. The credits page also notes a presentation of the score at the Italian Cultural Institute in Toronto, April 2023, as part of an International Seminar on Critical Approaches to Dante, <i><a href="https://dante.medieval.utoronto.ca" target="_blank">How does it feel? Dante's Emotions Today</a></i> at University of Toronto, with a thought on joy. </p><p>For the installation in Edmonton, the score will sit on a music stand, next to the 5 reverse megaphones. I'm looking forward to installing the work and getting feedback on it. Please swing by if you are in Edmonton. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>paola polettohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04309856088381902188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1455716981112681300.post-39827585978012123322022-10-07T08:21:00.004-04:002022-10-07T08:58:27.140-04:00Entanglements (tea, maybe)<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.paolapoletto.com/p/entanglements.html" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="759" data-original-width="1331" height="364" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_O5yRu5cbKU6xPSi1zK1WMEVuDCQNCBcYTEK3ctN2FINoca4hYUpSoLF71lNBSERU6l3HiC4zJevq8xbYlIYjzNYinN3STUHNjGInD0se9R-67dD6bd66f88U5xV6FJaCfSzl8UMvOa8pmOw311gm2Y9u3vvGST4yYfVcFU_NQWL6-oBP3oxcpiKC/w640-h364/Screen%20Shot%202022-10-07%20at%208.48.45%20AM.png" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /> <p></p>paola polettohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04309856088381902188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1455716981112681300.post-38757966413479960302022-05-09T20:48:00.006-04:002022-05-09T20:48:41.218-04:00Still Life <p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIISav81iACUO3AApSAzgP7dRz8zyvyzdZY6jUBobn_CYtQPV2paDHOgm3xyw3b04zTfYKlICjrTJE8jPql7ylNIz_TDQh1unEjb1HsBcyhhr8_RlxS_iM8dIWwpLUx_Vt5JdRexYBgFz5EFG5A7vn0jsCmsrOs6DPjEQkw031yWxclxtKiwa6WkSO/s1914/image0-2.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1914" data-original-width="1847" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIISav81iACUO3AApSAzgP7dRz8zyvyzdZY6jUBobn_CYtQPV2paDHOgm3xyw3b04zTfYKlICjrTJE8jPql7ylNIz_TDQh1unEjb1HsBcyhhr8_RlxS_iM8dIWwpLUx_Vt5JdRexYBgFz5EFG5A7vn0jsCmsrOs6DPjEQkw031yWxclxtKiwa6WkSO/w618-h640/image0-2.jpeg" width="618" /></a></div><br /> <p></p>paola polettohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04309856088381902188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1455716981112681300.post-56527177677951566012021-11-08T10:21:00.005-05:002022-05-09T20:11:31.310-04:00DQA - views of virtual exhibition <p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GGkH1c1H2iM/YYlF4MW4G9I/AAAAAAAACOo/3u8N3CLdDIsQUFdi6_4-WHF70cWZSw_6QCLcBGAsYHQ/s1024/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-08%2Bat%2B10.09.34%2BAM.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="401" data-original-width="1024" height="250" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GGkH1c1H2iM/YYlF4MW4G9I/AAAAAAAACOo/3u8N3CLdDIsQUFdi6_4-WHF70cWZSw_6QCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h250/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-08%2Bat%2B10.09.34%2BAM.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LWtuSaniPj0/YYlF5BpFfYI/AAAAAAAACO4/Ci1u5egx1OY8X_Txs7PMJ_hQYRsz2KTogCLcBGAsYHQ/s1024/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-08%2Bat%2B10.10.34%2BAM.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="391" data-original-width="1024" height="244" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LWtuSaniPj0/YYlF5BpFfYI/AAAAAAAACO4/Ci1u5egx1OY8X_Txs7PMJ_hQYRsz2KTogCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h244/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-08%2Bat%2B10.10.34%2BAM.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8MN3I5Jedww/YYlF5iT-OYI/AAAAAAAACO8/crpwGmo2rlQGdfOIsfdtif0bR2fIl8WmACLcBGAsYHQ/s1024/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-08%2Bat%2B10.10.47%2BAM.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="389" data-original-width="1024" height="244" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8MN3I5Jedww/YYlF5iT-OYI/AAAAAAAACO8/crpwGmo2rlQGdfOIsfdtif0bR2fIl8WmACLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h244/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-08%2Bat%2B10.10.47%2BAM.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br />NORTH YORK ARTS (NYA) commissioned 10 artists, each representing a year in their 10 year anniversary celebrations. In 2012, i worked on a public art project called Oh Dear that brought the work of North York based artists into key locations in and around Mel Lastman Square. This project above, celebrating NYA AND inspired by 2012, is a series of photos I've taken IN 2021 situated on the Square's water pool/winter outdoor rink. Here is an awesome virtual exhibiting space for the series created by NYA. <div><br /></div><div>SEE DQA PAGE FOR MORE INFO.
