In episode #17 of the Yale Schwarzman Center (YSC) web series, One, sound designer Daniela Hart YSD’21 talks with interviewer Taiga Christie YSPH’20 about connections between her academic and professional journeys. After working in the sound department of a video game company, Hart delved into designing for film, theater, dance, and other art forms. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, she co-produced Pandemic Voices, a series of choreographed performances highlighting the experiences of frontline healthcare workers. This episode of One includes several excerpts from Pandemic Voices.
Hart is also working with the YSC and Yale Dance Lab as a student sound designer for Transpositions, a program premiering this spring that will feature 16 renowned choreographers and a troupe of dancers from across the Yale community performing a series of digital dance poems.
