Sound 2024 – Seth Guy ‘I Cried When…’
Seth Guy is an experimental sound artist whose work explores the intersections of listening, memory, and imagination. His contribution to Sound 2024, held at LCB Depot, is a poignant installation titled “I Cried When…”, a sequence of thirty experimental sound sketches created during April 2024 as part of Artquest London’s 30Works30Days art challenge. These daily recordings are rooted in Seth’s deeply personal exploration of the human body and mortality, following his survival of sepsis in early 2023.
Seth’s work in this installation uses untreated concrete recordings, made by physically handling various objects, layered with minimal electronic sequences generated through a Korg MS-10 synthesiser on a Nintendo 3DS. Central to the pieces is Seth’s voice, narrating moments from his past when he cried. The visual aspect of the work complements the sound by featuring a consistent tone of blue for each sketch, adding a subtle yet meaningful dimension to the experience.
Known for his playful yet thought-provoking approach, Seth Guy creates performative works that challenge the listener’s perception of sound and its relationship with visual and emotional cues. His broader body of work spans both sonic and visual art, often incorporating humour and a sense of disquiet. Seth’s contribution to *Sound 2024* reflects his ongoing artistic research, blending personal narratives with experimental soundscapes that invite listeners to engage with the vulnerability and intimacy of human emotion.
Seth has a history of participatory and experiential projects, and his recent work has been featured in various exhibitions and publications, reinforcing his reputation as an innovative voice in contemporary sound art.
The Sound 2024 exhibition at LCB Depot is an event that highlights audio-focused creative practices. It takes place from 2nd to 20th September 2024, featuring a range of exhibitions and events related to sound art. The exhibition is part of LCB Depot’s monthly programme, which showcases different creative fields. Visitors can explore the exhibition on-site at LCB Depot from Monday to Friday, 11 am to 5 pm, as well as online via the @lcbdepot platform using the hashtag #sound.
This event brings together various artists, like Seth Guy, whose work reflects experimental and audio-driven themes and offers the public an opportunity to engage with cutting-edge sound art in both physical and digital spaces.
