Throughout the year the extensive project will examine the past, present and future of acoustic life-worlds—the soundscapes—of Graz.
“Grazer Soundscapes” takes place at the intersection of art and science: artistic methods and perspectives of sound art meet scientific methods of soundscape studies, cultural anthropology, contemporary history, cultural sociology and human geography, and aesthetic, philosophical reflection.
The multi-part project is made up of several subprojects coordinated in terms of content and methodology, including the district project “Grätzelsoundscapes” (Neighbourhood soundscapes), a scientific seminar at the University of Graz, the series of events “Soundscapes im Gespräch” (Soundscape discussions), the series of broadcasts “Grazer Soundscapes” on Radio Helsinki, and a virtual exhibition.
