Session 2 – Un Muting the Archive

Satch Hoyt

(C) Dale Grant, 2023

Satch Hoyt is a Berlin based musician, composer, visual artist and spiritualist of Jamaican British descent. His multifaceted body of work includes painting, sculpture, installation, sound installation and musical performance. In this session I will be speaking with him about his work of Un-Muting a practice that has emerged out of his artistic research project “Afro Sonic Mapping” where he mines what he terms “the Afro Sonic Signifier” in sound and music carried across the African Diaspora.

His Un-Muting album is available on digital and vinyl formats : https://traza.bandcamp.com/album/un-muting

Satch’s Un-Muting practice is also featured on Arte Tracks –

Gestohlen, ausgestellt, vergessen: Wem gehören die kolonialen Schätze?
