Abstract

This essay examines the central position the medium of sound played in the work of the artist Carolee Schneemann (US, 1939–2019). By exploring a few key early works such as Glass Environment for Sound and Motion (1962), Chromelodeon (1963), and Noise Bodies (1965), it traces how her exposure to emergent forms in experimental music informed important translations she made of complex sonic structures into expanded, layered, constantly evolving visual systems. The essay argues that Schneemann transformed the body into a soft recording system that broadcast sonic testimonies of everyday encounters with the excesses of conspicuous consumption, the inequalities of gendered relations, and the disturbing encounters with state-mandated violence against other cultures, in particular the US invasion of Vietnam.

施耐曼探测:具身声波系统

本文探讨了艺术家Carolee Schneemann(美国，1939-2019)作品中声音媒介的核心地位。通过探索一些重要的早期作品，如声音和运动的玻璃环境(1962)，Chromelodeon(1963)和Noise Bodies(1965)，它追溯了她如何接触实验音乐中的新兴形式，并将复杂的声音结构转化为扩展的，分层的，不断发展的视觉系统。这篇文章认为，Schneemann把身体变成了一个软录音系统，播放日常遭遇的声音证词，包括过度的炫耀性消费、性别关系的不平等，以及国家强制对其他文化的暴力，特别是美国入侵越南。

While remaining faithful to its feminist focus, the journal also explores feminist work in relation to race studies, postcolonial studies, and queer studies.
