Consider yourself invited to an SFAI Noise/Drone Doom Show, the public presentation of works by students in this semester’s Drone Doom & Sonic Warfare class. This course focuses on violence and warfare in relationship to bodies, technology, economies, art and politics, highlighting the ways sound is weaponized, from borders to raves, for maintaining global systems of capital. Through a deep study of Steve Goodman’s Sonic Warfare: Sound, Affect, and the Ecology of Fear, students are challenged to complicate violence itself by positioning their theoretical knowledge, installations, and performances of brutal noise as aesthetic expression. In this students have also positioned their aesthetics as metaphors that critically and diplomatically respond to power.
