Ján Solčáni

Ján Solčáni b. 28.11.1989, Poprad, Slovakia

His activities lie between field-recording, curatorship, theory and VJ-ing. In his PhD research he focuses on the phenomena of our culture that are perceivable and expressible with sound – via listening, sound work, sociological imagination, recording, reinterpretation, oral and audio history and acoustic ecology. As a curator and university teacher he is interested in the processes of sharing knowledge and giving voice to the “invisible”. He collaborates with Tatiana Heuman setting up visuals for her live sets based on homemade-footage processing. His academic background is in aesthetics, new media theory, sound and listening as a part of his current PhD studies. He is a member of collective and label Skupina and cultural space PRAHA.
