The fifth season continues to explore the artistic potential of Garage Archive Collection, as creators transform its texts, catalogues, and booklets into musical statements.

Independent musicians and sound artists interpret documents and artifacts from Garage Archive Collection as scores: an exhibition booklet turns into an ambient soundscape, memories become an audio diary, manuscripts songs, an audio essay draws on poetic theory, and digital data gets a musical body. The new season focuses on the process of translation itself, the re-coding of the document into sound, and the fluidity of the boundaries between the document and fiction.

This season was prepared in dialogue with the project Open Storage. A Prologue, an exhibition of works from the Museum’s collection that shows their interconnections with documents from Garage Archive Collection.
