Oenosthesia is a ground breaking interactive exploration of sound and taste
created by sound artist and wine writer, Jo Burzynska (aka Stanier Black-Five).
This soundscape using her recordings of the vineyards and wineries of Irpinia
in Italy, explores the significant way that sound influences the perception of
taste through the combination of the changing timbres and frequencies in the
piece with a selection of different wines from the region. The work was created
last year during Burzynska’s residency in Southern Italy, and is possibly the
first piece of gustatory/sound art created both from and including wine. It was
premiered at the Interferenze New Art Festival’s Factory of Art Rurality and
Media 2012 (FARM2012) in Tufo, Italy and this programme is the first time the
installation has been presented in New Zealand.
As a prelude to the evening, there will be a showing of "FARM - Factory of Art,
Rurality and (New) Media", directed by Interferenze Director, Leandro Pisano.
This short film documents Burzynska’s project and the “Suoni dal confine”
residency programme of which it was part, in which international artists were
invited to embrace rurality in the creation of works of sonic art in the
Italian countryside. Burzynska will then personally introduce the project, her
own theories and the science of sensory interaction before those attending
experience Oenosthesia. The installation lasts 25 minutes and includes tasting
of three wines from Irpinia.
Jo Burzynska is one of the country’s leading wine critics, writing a weekly
wine column in the New Zealand Herald’s Viva magazine, as well as contributing
to specialist wine publications worldwide. She is also an active sound artist,
recording and performing internationally under the name, Stanier Black-Five,
making work largely based on the manipulation of her own environmental
recordings. In recent years she has been exploring the synergies between taste
and sound through her own research and hosting music and wine matching
workshops.
With thanks to Irpinia’s regional consortium of GAL Partenio, which sponsored
the residency and the featured wines; Leandro Pisano for curating the residency
and the Audio Foundation for hosting the event.
