How can we capture the sonic essence of a place on a map? How have approaches to sound cartography evolved over time? What defines this practice, and who were its pioneers? In this exploration of digital sound cartography, we will delve into the history and development of sound mapping, exploring the work of researchers who laid its foundations. We will discover the different forms that sound maps can take and how techniques for recording and representing soundscapes have transformed over time. Through listening sessions, we will experience the work of artists who use diverse field recording techniques, gaining insight into their methods and creative approaches.
Sound Cartography is a workshop in english language and part of the research and art residency project „Sonic Confessions“. It is organised by Outsideininsideoutinsideoutoutsidein collective since 2019 and happens in Torhaus Wehlen from August 11th-September 8th.
