Can a distorted bird song, in the mass of traffic sounds, make you aware of the effect of loudness on the natural life of the city? Can art make you more attentive to the sonic details? Can a boat carry the underwater sounds, as a reminiscence of past travels? Do you know how different the sound of the rivers, streams, lakes, oceans, fountains, or drinking water is? Can you imagine the hidden sounds of the water treatment plant or of the water running long distances in the city’s pipes? Can you “imagine” a sound?
Sonic Narratives is a physical and imaginary path, which aims to raise awareness of the urban space, lived, explored and (re)discovered, the ecologic, emotional, acoustic, sensory and social dimensions of the city.
The physical route, which starts from the city center of Timisoara, on the banks of the Bega canal to the outskirts, crosses an urban landscape with a diverse historical load and induces us in a series of sound and visual incursions through artistic interventions and installations.
