A sonic exploration of future spaces in Vienna with Radio ORANGE 94.0
Listen to all productions at the CBA.
„Post-Normal Soundmapping“ explored the WIENWOCHE Festival between 10 and 19 September 2021.
A group of radio hosts and sound artists searched for spaces in Vienna which allow for a glimpse into a post-normal future. Spaces in which people are working on "new normals" and futures not longing for the reconstruction of the past. Where communities develop survival strategies or create change leading to a more just society in 2121. Post-Normal Sound Mapping digs into the sound of the future.
Together the sound portraits add up to a sonic map of the future grounded in the city. The soundscapes have been aired in the ORANGE 94.0 programme during the WIENWOCHE.
In the course of a workshop the involved radio hosts developped methods of storytelling, of collective speculation and how social change can be shaped and experienced on an acoustic level.
