Scott Sinclair (as the soul of Company Fuck) speaks in this round table discussion concerning the aesthetics of karaoke in his work.
Biennal de Karaoke / Karaoke Biennial
Venue: Santa Mònica, Barcelona, Spain.
Karaoke occupies a marginal position as a cultural genre, although every day it summons thousands of bodies in bars, party rooms, canteens or virtual platforms to tune their heartbeats to the chords of a hit and put themselves at the service of the reproduction of a series of images, models and identities.
From the Digitalisation Guild we have invited a series of artists interested in the practice of karaoke to reflect on this playful way of being together. What artistic potential does karaoke have today? What would a karaoke biennial be like?
From 5 to 7 p.m.: Round table with the artists Scott Sinclair, Joana Tischkau and Clara Reiner, moderated by Pilar Cruz.
From 19h to 20h: Clàudia del Barrio and Noela Covelo Velasco invite us to sing in an open-air karaoke and to transform ourselves into a virtual image. A festive game of presentation of the project Chroma Sessions III, in which the artists continue their research on the karaoke space.
