What is listening, what is language?

What is nature, what is natural?

EPISODE NOTES ‘What is nature, what is natural?’ is an edited conversation between the artist Marina Dubia and the musician composer Liv Vester Larsen.   Both have been part of Enhanced Practice which is a new transdisciplinary artist development and mentorship program for artists who have recently graduated from one of the seven national institutions for higher art education in Denmark. It is organized by the cross-institutional International Center for Knowledge in the Arts to give young artists across music, film, performing arts and visual arts possibilities for developing their practice in research-based, collaborative and socially engaged ways. Marina and Liv talks about environmental responsibility, what is nature, art and how it all relates.   They begin by introducing themselves followed by a digressional reflection on where they were and what inspired them five years ago, which was either just before they applied or during their studies at respectively the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen and The Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts, Southern Denmark. So before becoming the artists they are today.   The sound bites used in this episode are of different kinds - the field recordings used now and again are by the artist Nanna Katrine Hansen who has also been a participant in the Enhanced Practice program, the music is by Liv Vester Larsen and all the archival sound material that occurs is added by Jan Høgh Stricker, who have edited and produced this podcast.   This conversation took place via a zoom call with the beautiful disturbances that comes along with that – and you will for example be able to hear Liv breastfeeding her four-week-old child here and there. A shout out to her for taking part in the conversation nonetheless.
