Jacek Smolicki

Jacek Smolicki is an interdisciplinary artist, designer, and researcher. His works bring historical, critical and existential dimensions to listening, recording and archiving practices in human and more-than-human realms. Besides working with historical documents, archives, and heritage, Smolicki develops other modes of mediating stories and signals from various sites and temporalities. His work is manifested through soundwalks, soundscape compositions, diverse forms of writing, experimental para-archives, and audio-visual installations. He has performed, published, and exhibited internationally (e.g. In-Sonora, Madrid, Audioart Festival, Krakow, Ars Electronica, Linz, Moscow Young Art Biennale, Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Sarajevo) and currently holds an international postdoc position at Linköping University (funded by the Swedish Research Council), Simon Fraser University in Vancouver and Harvard University (with support from Fulbright Commission). He is a co-founder of Walking Festival of Sound (www.wfos.net).
