Creative (mis)understandings - methodologies of inspiration

Abstrakti

The artistic research project Creative (Mis)Understandings: Methodologies of Inspiration is a collaboration between sound makers / compoers / performers from an indigenous community in Taiwan (Tao on Lanyu/Orchid island) and from Europe. There is a high urgency to transform traditional songs into new artisttic forms, creating new ways of forwarding important traditional knowledge to the next generations. This collaboration also sheds a different light on the question, what it means to create something "new" in the eurpopean context.
