CRiSAP’s 20th anniversary

Creative Research in Sound Arts Practice (CRiSAP) celebrated its 20th anniversary this September and October.

The celebrations were staged as a performance evening at Cafe OTO, a month-long radio series on Resonance Extra, and a celebratory booklet charting CRiSAP projects throughout the years.

These activities celebrated and reflected on the last 20 years of research work.

They also listen forward to future developments within, and beyond, the field of sound arts.

Read more about the 20th Anniversary in an interview with CRiSAP Director, Mark Peter Wright.
