DORĆOL SOUNDWALK / improvE2.9 + ZvučnaMapaDorćola

Find all sounds and maps on the bandcamp album download page:
ImprovE collective’s ninth event within the platform for contemporary art, in the form of the first sound walk along Dorćol, took place on Sunday, 15th September and began in front of the UK Parobrod.

At the invitation by this collective and in collaboration with the project „Sound Map of Dorćol“, seven chosen artist created new soundscapes using recordings of sounds from the streets designated for this walk. Visitors enjoyed the music as a a new way of experiencing the city, and at the end of each song, there was a new spot/story from the sound map.

Our idea is to make this walk available to everybody, and for that reason, all materials and map routes in pdf format can be downloaded from our blog.

Idea
Idea for the realization of this project stems from the concept of mapping the sound landscapes (soundscapes) that document the atmosphere and dynamics of an area by graphic and audio recordings. One of the best ways to “get to know” the sounds of an area is the soundwalk – a walk that gives us insight into a certain surroundings by listening and concentrating on the sounds. The aim of the Soundwalk along Dorćol is to perceive and explore one of the oldest Belgrade parts by audio/listener point of view, to establish interactive relations between participants­authors of works, walkers and sounds of the area, i.e. Dorćol, and to gain the ability to understand sounds of an area and their meaning.

Dorćol, as a meeting point of many cultures and dialogue between history and contemporary trends, opens up a space for such an idea to achieve its full realisation, and at the same time to become a stimulus for other similar actions in other city parts.
