LISTEN - Interactive Installation by Laura Sánchez and Luciana Morelli

LISTEN  is an interactive sound installation that represents the city of Basel  through sounds that were recorded in different neighborhoods by the  artists. The visitors can choose which sounds to play and thus become  the co-composers of an open work that will be different each time.  Through this experience, the audience is invited to listen to the city  in a different way.

"In  a way the world is a huge composition, a huge musical composition  that's going on all the time, without a beginning and presumably without  an ending. We are the composers of this huge miraculos composition that  is going on around us. And we can improve it or we can destroy it. We  can add more noises or we can add more beautiful sounds. That's all up  to us".

Raymond Murray Schafer

You  can visit the installation as part of "SPIEL! Games as critical  practice", an exhibition of works by students of the Sonic Space and  Jazzcampus from the Musik Akademie Basel
