MP3 Deviation Yasunao Tone – tworzenie poprzez zakłócanie

Journal Title: Audiosfera. Koncepcje-badania-praktyki - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 1

Abstract

The starting point of this article is the work of the Japanese artist Yasunao Tone, entitled MP3 Deviation . Th e work was created in collaboration with a team of researchers focused around the Music Research Centre (Thom Blake, Mark Fell, Tony Myatt, Peter Worth), at the University of York in the UK in 2009. In the case of MP3 Deviation we are therefore faced with an attempt to discover and update what was to remain hidden. The result is the ability to induce 22 kinds of errors as a consequence of applying appropriate changes to the selected parameters. The artist uses the prepared soft ware during concerts, and the results of the experiments have been also released in the form of a vinyl record. Yasunao Tone’s proposals reveal the need for a kind of depoliticization of art. Contemporary sound artists, using high-tech tools in their work, are increasingly dependent on competing manufacturing corporations, and thus on the laws governing the export market. Searching for and highlighting (and even creating) defects can be treated as a political act which expresses itself in opposition to the prevailing economic and political relationships.
