Objetos de extrañeza: Listening to Silence

Servidor Local will host guided tour for children and adolescents of the exhibition Objetos de Extrañeza, followed by the workshop Listening to Silence, led by Javier Sinecio at Servidor Local.

The activity is aimed at children and teenagers ages 8 to 15 and focuses on deep listening and contemplation as ways to explore how sound is constructed. The participation fee is $500 MXN.

Javier Sinecio (Querétaro, 1990)

Exploring the world with a recorder in hand, Javier Sinecio approaches noise through the creation of soundscapes in which he documents, selects, and reconstructs field recordings gathered across different geographies and contexts. His mixes can include natural phenomena—such as the waves of a bay—as well as the roar of construction machines in the city, street music, and spontaneous conversations or DJ sets. Through Variations of Environments, a project that brings together his interest in audio editing and deep listening, he has released two volumes of sonic experimentation, presented at PKB-Gallery (2024) and at the Tsonami Sound Art Festival 2024.
