The International Congress of Art Yelling traces its origins to a group of avant-garde artists and vocalists in the early 20th century who sought to push the boundaries of artistic expression through vocalization. Originally an informal gathering of experimental vocalists, the movement gained momentum as artists delved into the realm of 'Art Yelling' – a form of expressive vocalization that aimed to evoke emotions, provoke thoughts, and challenge conventional notions of art.
As the movement expanded globally, so did the need for a platform where artists, vocal technologists, scholars, and enthusiasts could convene, exchange ideas, and explore the evolving intersection of art and vocal electronics. The first International Congress of Art Yelling was held in the late 1960s, where participants discussed the nascent integration of technology with vocal expression.
Over the decades, these congresses became biennial events, drawing speakers and attendees from diverse backgrounds: vocalists experimenting with electronic modulation, engineers developing cutting-edge vocal synthesis technologies, philosophers exploring the philosophical implications of voice modulation in art, and psychologists studying the impact of vocalization on human emotions.
The Eleventh International Congress of Art Yelling, held in the vibrant metropolis of Częstochowa, Poland, represents a milestone in the evolution of this movement. With a focus on 'Vocal Electronics: Redefining Artistic Frontiers,' the congress aims to explore not only the technical aspects of manipulating voice but also the ethical, societal, and artistic implications of such advancements.
Key themes for discussion include the ethics of voice manipulation in art, the democratization of vocal technologies, the role of AI in vocal expression, and the preservation of cultural identities through vocal artistry. Workshops, performances, academic papers, and interactive exhibits showcase the latest innovations in the liminal spaces between vocals and electronics while honoring the rich history of Art Yelling as a form of avant-garde expression.
This compilation cassette is a physical artifact of the groundbreaking pioneers, visionaries, and emerging talents who converged to shape the future landscape of Art Yelling and redefine the boundaries of vocalized artistic expression.
