The urban space can be an invitation towards recontextualizing our place in the world, through the auditory exploration of its multiple symbolic ramifications. Practices of soundwalks inspired by theoretical writings and historical scores propose sensitive and performative exercises for an accentuation of auditory perception. Together, we form a silent choir that writes its own gestural and sonic score while traversing the city.
