FUKT #23 – The Sound Issue

The Sound Issue traces the relation between sound and drawing, where they meet, overlap, and translate each other. How can a drawing capture rhythm, voice, or noise? What does sound look like on paper? From graphic scores and musical structures to resonance, vibration, and listening, this issue brings together artists who turn sound into image and image into sound. Some works follow the pulse of music, others trace the invisible currents of electromagnetic fields, the voices of whales, or the inner sound of thought and memory.
