Anhum: del coro virtual a la experimentación musical en tiempos de pandemia
Journal Title: Revista Académica Estesis - Year 2022, Vol 1, Issue 13
Abstract
The health crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic directly and mainly affected collective activities. In our artistic context theatres, museums, concert halls, schools, and rehearsal venues were closed with no reopening date to contain the immense waves of contagion. With the various limitations imposed by social isolation, choral singing around the world was necessarily mediated by technology, which has had a direct impact on the relationship of the singer with his voice and the director with the process of musical creation. In this context, the analogical/biological body ceases to be the fundamental instrument of musical activity, being subordinated to virtuality and the audio/visual record. However, this biocybernetic evolution imposed by social isolation during the pandemic opens a crack for experimentation. It practically demands a transformation of musical activity and its actors, encouraging new ways of conceiving music and collective creation. This work is part of the A/R/Tographic process carried out within the framework of the Master's Degree in Music of Latin America and the Caribbean at the University of Antioquia, which resulted in the conception of the sound work "Nós" and the design of the digital platform “Anhum”, in collaboration with the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande, in Brazil. Such creations are experimental and seek, through sound resources and performing arts, to translate the pandemic experience of a choral director and invite the public to active listening and collective creation through technology.
