In Conversation: Archival Feedback x Bakehouse Art Complex

Miami-based artist duo Archival Feedback (Emile Milgrim and Thom Wheeler Castillo) will be joining us for an artist talk on Bakehouse Freestyle 100, a recently commissioned sound installation created on the occasion of Bakehouse Art Complex’s 40th anniversary. Moderated by Senior Curatorial Fellow René Morales, the conversation will explore the artists’ approach to sound as a tool for engaging history, landscape, and collective memory.

Centered on Bakehouse’s 100-year-old Art Deco industrial building and its surrounding neighborhoods, Bakehouse Freestyle 100 weaves together two distinct sonic layers: “The Mediated Voice,” a collage of archival recordings tracing the evolution of 20th-century media, and “The Sound of Place,” a composition of environmental field recordings capturing the rhythms of the region. Together, these elements create a dynamic interplay between narrated history and the lived, ambient textures of change.

Drawing from regional archives and digital repositories, the work reflects on Miami’s cultural legacy while holding space for its future. This talk offers an opportunity to hear directly from the artists about their process, research, and ongoing exploration of sound as a means of deep listening and place-based inquiry.
