Este trabajo documenta mi participación en el workshop ‘Hearing Berlin: 12 approaches’, impartido por Chris Watson con la ayuda de Derek Holzer. El workshop tuvo lugar entre el 1-5 Julio del 2008, dentro de las actividades del festival ‘Tuned City - Between sound and space speculation’ (un proyecto muy interesante que propone una nueva evaluación de los espacios arquitéctonicos desde la perspectiva de lo acústico).

Las tres piezas estan compuestas a partir de grabaciones de campo hechas en diversos lugares de la ciudad y fueron realizadas para la presentación final de resultados de este taller. Estas y otras piezas realizadas por el resto de participantes (unos 50min en total aprox) fueron reproducidas en loop en una instalación multicanal abierta al público en uno de los estudios de la radio house Nalepastraße, lugar escogido para la programación del último día del festival.

Además de mis propias grabaciones, en el track ‘01_first_approach’ utilicé algunos fragmentos de grabaciones realizadas por mis compañeros Kim Laugs y John Wollaston.

This work documents my participation in the workshop ‘Hearing Berlin: 12 approaches’, conducted by Chris Watson with the support of Derek Holzer. The workshop was held between 1-5 July 2008, as part of the activities within the festival ‘Tuned City - Between sound and space speculation’ (a rich and interesting project wich proposes a new evaluation of architectural spaces from the perspective of the acoustic).

These tracks are based on field recordings made at several urban locations in Berlin and were created during those days as my contribution to a final exhibition of our activities in the workshop. These pieces altogether with others created by some of the participants (spanning a total running time of 50min aprox) were presented publicly on 5th July 2008 as a continuous-loop multichannel sound installation in one of the studios at the radio house Nalepastraße, the chosen location for the programme on the last day of the festival.

In addition to my own field recordings I used a cuple made by my colleagues Kim Laugs and John Wollaston as source material for the track titled “01_first_approach”.
