Lawrence Abu Hamdan and Lendl Barcelos are two artists whose work explores, among other topics, the relationship between sound and its effects on the body. This interrogation can be witnessed in Abu Hamdan\u2019s piece Air Pressure,<\/em> which is presented at INDEX this year. The performance questions the use of sound as an instrument of silencing in times of war by examining 15 years of violation of the Lebanese airspace by the Israeli military forces, creating an everyday soundscape of great tension.
\nBoth Abu Hamdan and Barcelos work in the field of what might be called the politics of listening and sonic culture, which will be the starting point for their conversation.<\/p>\n
