text2field-recordings - Lisboa 2017

by Wolfgang Dorninger

'I wouldn't want to miss you, Sound Development City.'

2017: I recorded the same text twice. The first time I used recordings by the participants of my text2field-recordings workshop in Lisboa. The second time I used sounds I had recorded myself in Marseille during SDC2013.

Two times the same text, yet very different. Just as the two cities, and the week-long journey that seperated them. The Architecture Biennale in Lisboa sounded 'Close Closer', and the exhibitions were titled 'Future Perfect', or 'The Real And Other Fictions'. At La Friche in Marseille I looked at face that were exhausted by the year as cultural capital, while out in the city i found pure sounding life - at the same time Christian Schüle (Die Zeit) found silence in Marseille and titled his article with: 'Marseille, wo ist dein Lärm?' (Marseille, where is your noise?).

'Dancing Partners', what a funky, freaky, intellectual, arty dance. I will continue to remember Sound Development City 2013 clearly for quite a long time. Thank you to all of my dancing partners, the SDC crew and the very honorable generosity of the private sponsors!

Park Recordings

My series of park recordings have a new home: https://audioboom.com/playlists/1285831-park-recordings

park recordings

Der französische und später der englische Park waren Symbole der Leitkultur des Adels. Die Entwürfe der großflächigen Gartenanlagen waren Teil des Selbstverständnisses absolutistischer Fürsten, die mit Hilfe der gebändigten Natur Macht und Wohlstand ausdrückten. Kommunale Parkanlagen entstanden erst ab Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts nicht nur in gesundheitspolitischer Absicht, sondern auch als Einrichtung moralischer Bildung. Der Park, nicht nur Ort der Erholung und des Vergnügens, ist seit der Renaissance auch Bühne des gesellschaftlichen Lebens und sozialer Umbrüche. In Krisenzeiten verwandelten sich manche Parks in Notquartiere wie z.B. der Tompkins Square Park in New York City Ende des 20. Jahrhunderts.

Im Zuge des Projektes Sound Development City 2013 besuchte ich unzählige Parks in Lissabon, Madrid, Barcelona und Marseille um sie akustisch zu untersuchen. Waren die barocken Parkanlagen im offenen Feld angelegt, die Parkanlagen des Bürgertums anstelle von Stadtmauern errichtet worden, so liegen die Parkanlagen heute im Zentrum der Städte.

Meine Fragestellung bei meinem projekt "park recordings" lautet: Wie klingen Parkanlagen 2013.

Ich positioniere dabei immer ein omnidirektionales Mikrophon (AKG 414) - das Schall von allen Seiten, auch von oben und unten gleichwertig aufnimmt - in der Mitte der Parkanlage. Die Tageszeit ist beliebig gewählt, der Aussteuerungspegel ist immer gleich eingestellt und ich achte darauf, dass keine ausserordentlichen Tätigkeiten wie Rasenmähen oder Bauarbeiten durchgeführt werden. Die Aufnahmen werden in einer Länge von vier Minuten online gestellt und in weiterer Folge in einer Installation ausgestellt.

park recordings

The french and later the english park were symbols for the cultural identity of the nobility. The design of the extensive gardens were part of the self-conception of absolutistic rulers who expressed power and wealth through the display of tamed nature. Communal parks didn’t originate until the mid 19th century with a health-political background, as well as a facilities of moral education. From the Renaissance on, the park is not only a place for recreation and relaxation, but also a stage for social life and change. In times of crisis, parks transformed themselves into homeless shelters, like the Tompkins Square Park in New York City at the end of the 20th century did.

In the course of the Sound Development City 2013 project i visited numerous parks in Lisboa, Madrid, Barcelona and Marseille to examine them accoustically. While the baroque parks were set in the open fields, the parks of the middle classes were constructed instead of city walls, the parks of today are located in the middle of the cities.

My working question for my project „park recordings“ was: What is the sound of parks in 2013.

I always placed an omnidirectional microphone (AKG 414) that records sound equally from all sides, including from above and below, in the middle of the park. The time of day was randomly picked, the recording level was always set identically and I paid attention that there weren’t any extraordinary activities like lawn mowing or construction work going on. The recordings are published with a length of four minutes and will be exhibited as an installation.

vienna in january 2015: birds this winter, die gedämpften klänge von autos, klirrende gläser und gelächter in vollen kaffeehäusern, jammern und betteln, flirten und 1 euro salat, böse bemerkungen in u-bahn, sexy concert und bekiffte ansagen, guerilla girls are in the city, be a loser and who wants a banana?
