7. Collage and sound sampling as drifting states: Daniela Serafimova and Karin Roberts

How is the state of drifting a fundamental part of being in a creative process? What does it feel like and how long can it last? 

 

Karins art and design practice meets Danielas song writing in her home on a warm summer day. They get to know each other through the proposed notion of drifting as they spend a day making both a song and a collage together. Listen to them discuss the process and their different approaches to music, language and images.

 

Karin Roberts is a graphic designer and collage artist, working part time as a project manager for Nordberg Movement. She is also a co-founder of ARTmovement, an organisation that creates artistic meet-ups and co-creates art.
