Kristen Roos’ sound art is based on sound waves. Whether working with DIY radio-based projects, massive arrays of low frequencies, or sampled and sequenced rhythmic construction, Roos demonstrates that there is more to sound than just audibility. Drawing on history, urban and rural sound ecology, and the capabilities of his means of transmission to suggest new or hidden realities in relation to the subjects he investigates. His work has been exhibited and performed in artists-run centers and festivals in Canada and Sweden, and has aired on radio stations in New York, Boston, London, and Melbourne. His writing on sound and radio art appears in the Errant Bodies publication: Radio Territories, and the New Star Books publication: Islands of Resistance: Pirate Radio in Canada. |
