Sound Mapping the City — An Acoustic Map of Halle

 

Sol Rez­za is map­ping the city of Hal­le acou­sti­cal­ly. In April the broad­cas­ting series Sound Map­ping Hal­le is crea­ting and pre­sen­ting an acou­stic map of the city of Hal­le on air and online. In our first broad­cast we tal­ked about the con­cept of “maps” and the act of map­ping. What pro­vi­des a sound­ing map? Sol Rez­za is pre­sen­ting the first mark on the acou­stic map: “The Wall of Illu­si­ons”, an acou­stic reflec­tion on the mural of Hans-Joa­chim Triebsch in Halle

 

(Broad­cast: Sound Map­ping the City / 18 March 2018, with: Judith Bai­da­les, Tina Klat­te, Sol Rezza)

 

The act of map­ping public and pri­va­te spaces is an act of tag­ging the­se places. In seve­ral live broad­casts the­se acts crea­te real-time radio narratives.The resul­ting acou­stic tags and sonic reflec­tions of the city are gra­du­al­ly sha­ping a sound map, which pro­po­ses an alter­na­ti­ve con­cept of “ori­en­ta­ti­on” for its listeners.
