The art production residency will try and spatially arrange the series of recordings obtained by the work group mapa sonoru along 2014. They will focus in sound environments related to transportation in Asturias. In that regard, the residency is seen as an opportunity to reflect upon the documental as well as artistic potential of sound recordings.
When one thinks of the sound landscape, an inherent component is its short-lived nature, how changing it may be depending on the day and even on the time of day. If we focus on an urban environment, it is clear that the means of transport are one of the main causes that impact and change the sound environment of a city.
In this phonographic study, the work group Mapa sonoru starts from the field sessions to listen, reflect upon and gather on-site recordings, followed by studio sessions where the material is edited and the presentation of results is prepared.
