“To define a “sound” via a sound system, is to define sound by way of a cultural apparatus – in this case, one that requires deejays, selectors, engineers, producers, people who build up the sound and disseminate it through speakers or across record shop counters. And of course, people who follow, criticize and consume the product of that “sound”. Sound in Jamaica means process, community, strategy and product. It functions as an aesthetic space within which the members of the national or transnational Jamaican community imagine themselves”, Louis Chude-Sokei in
‘Dr. Satan’s Echo Chamber’ (2008).
Participants are invited to study, exchange and ultimately learn how to create a sound system through a mix of modalities:
The key objective is to not only activate the sound system but also grasp a deeper understanding of how we can arrive at an imagined community that “operates not by the technologies of literacy, but through the cultural economy of sound and its technological apparatus which is distinctly oral” (Chude-Sokei, 2008). So, while what emerges from the compact seminar will surely look, feel, smell, taste and absolutely sound like a sound system – currently known as PSSS – we will all have to wait to fully sense not only its name, but what it does.
