Creative Media Zone invited local sound artist and field recordist AK Kan to share his experiences of curating local sound maps and the technique of sound recording. He also presented his experimental sound art on the immersive Soundscape system of Shaw Auditorium. In addition, AK also hosted a workshop that offered students the chance to record natural sounds around HKUST on different devices. Participants learned how to identify the best spots for sound recording, “observe” with their ears, and experience the mixture of changes and calmness in the natural world.
