"This is a compilation of things we've been working on over the last 10-12 years, a 'best of the World According to Sound' show. And it's an introduction to this perspective for people who might not consider themselves sound aficionados or sound studies people."
"The humanities give us new ways to understand the things we think we know. The arts and sciences are about pursuing different ways of knowing. The show is an exercise in using sound, which is often neglected or overlooked, as a way of knowing."
The World According to Sound, a duo of artists-in-residence, returns to Cornell on March 23 for a performance of their show "Ways of Knowing" in Sage Chapel. The performance is part of a 25-campus tour highlighting academic inquiry. The show compiles the duo's work from the past 10-12 years and serves as an introduction to sound studies for general audiences. The producers emphasize that the humanities and arts provide alternative ways of understanding knowledge. The performance uses sound as an often-overlooked method of knowing, bridging artificial barriers between sciences and humanities by demonstrating how different disciplines pursue distinct ways of understanding the world.
