Sound work
mnemnonic
Each month over the summer, Justin Bennett publishes a new or archival sound work. The third one is mnemonic, using binaural recording to spatialise sounds derived from a small antique cymbal and is intended for headphone listening.
Collective research
Emptor, an artistic research on the ecology of artistic practice
Emptor, a chapter that is being set up from 2021 onwards by Jubilee, continues along the methodology and efforts of Jubilee’s collective research project Caveat, actively applying the practice-based approach to ‘property’, an element that highly defines the economy of visual arts. Just as ‘the contract’ functioned as a filter and landing stage in Caveat, ‘property’ functions as a central notion, linking different discussions and research trajectories.
