City of Sounds - expo view

City of Sounds is a new participatory project spreading the love for sound, the act of listening, field recording and composing – via numerous children workshops. All field recordings from those workshops are collected as an ever growing sonic map of The Hague. In parallel to this I was commissioned to create a portrait of The Hague, in the form of a new sound sculpture. Both the sonic map and the sound sculpture are now exhibited at Atrium City Hall.
