The ESS/FENCE Archive Exchange was a month-long collaboration in April 2023 between Experimental Sound Studio (ESS) in Chicago and FENCE Poetry Journal (FENCE) in New York to each commission one artist working in their primary discipline to create a new work, drawing inspiration from the other organization’s archives. The goal of the residency was to create space and support for artists to research, experiment, share knowledge and ideas, and to use digital archives as generative material for new work.
This event at ESS’s Audible Gallery shares the new works created by sonic artist Spencer Hutchinson and poet Alyssa Perry, excerpts from ESS’s Creative Audio Archives and FENCE’s digital archives, and informal artist presentations.
Materials from the residency will also be published in Issue 41 of FENCE Poetry Journal (to be released Fall 2023).
