What is the colonialism of sound?
Right in our backyard of Vancouver, “Edzi’u is a mixed race Tahltan and inland Tlingit artist, songwriter and composer. Her songs are an incarnation of her family’s ancient tradition of storytelling, realized by designing sound through vintage and current audio recordings, electronic instruments and the voice.”
It’s neat to see how Edzi’u incorporates oral stories from interviews and match the energy with instrumental music. I’d be interested to find out how oral storytelling that passes from generations before us can continue to be told in this digital age.
