Bradford Sound Artists - a group for people that work with sound and those that might want to - were meeting regularly at Fuse Art Space throughout 2023. The idea came from the people behind Play Music.
We’re now meeting up randomly to work on various projects.
People of any level of ability, hobbyists and career musicians alike, are welcome to join us.
Multi-channel sound
FUSE is home to an eight speaker ambisonic set up which is available for people to use.
Read about our recent artist talks using the system:
Bradford Sound Women Network
There is some cross over between Bradford Sound Artists and the Bradford Sound Women Network. They meet at Fuse Art Space on the first Saturday of the month.
Upcoming meetings/events
We don’t have anything planned at the moment.
Bradford Sound Artists is:
- A place to talk about how you use sound as art/performance
- Or to ask questions so that you can start
- It’s a resource sharing opportunity. We can read, watch films together, and listen.
- We can organise field trips, like doing location recording around Bradford District
How to stay informed?

Cyclic Sounds
Join us for an evening of live music celebrating cyclic sounds…
Reflections
Today we reflected on the evening we improvised and performed with each other. As it was our first time doing this as a group, it was exciting and interesting to see what would come out of it. We tried to recreate what each other was doing in our minds and realised we remembered quite a lot - where people were and what they were doing - but not entirely the details - what instruments each of us played and what we were playing.
Improvising to video
At the last meeting we decided we would have an evening where we tried to improvise sound as a group to random videos.
