The Soundscape TUB is a self organized “Projektwerkstatt” that explores the concepts of acoustic ecology, the relationship between people and their environment mediated by sound. With students from different faculties of TUB, UdK and other universities, the project stands in the intersection of science, arts and humanities, dealing with topics such as social ecology, technology, data collection, group dynamics and creative practice. Soundscape TUB works with the potential of sound and listening as a socio-political tool and science communication.

Co-sounding: Towards a Sonorous Land is an artistic research that delves into an Acoustemological unpacking of the landscape, focussing on the site of Amstelpark. The project intends to inculcate a dialogic context within which an intersubjective approach to the perception of land as an equitable habitat of human and non-human lifeforms is developed. This mode of reciprocity and intersubjectivity helps to counteract the nature-culture binary with an ambient and environmental aesthetics in sound arts.

Unheard landscapes: this metaphor leaves space to imagination, to the un-thought, to the un-known, to past and future, as well as unexplored sound scenarios. It also reaches the field of auditory perception, the acoustic domain. Sound, through auditive qualities, acoustic phenomena, design practices, artistic creations, and listening experiences, offers an inspiring transversal entry onto landscapes and ambiances. Beyond the discussions on “soundscape”, approaching ordinary environments through sounds increases the awareness of our own capacities to feel, while we inhabit and move across different worlds. From an ecological perspective, resonance appears a key word, too. It puts sound and space together. It implies the idea of a plurality of bodies, things and living beings vibrating all together, sharing common contexts of time and space.
The act of listening bypasses the passive meaning it usually receives. It contains in itself a completely unexpressed potential, connoted with «project», «pro-action» and «active decision» by individuals. What will be the sounds of the future and the soundscapes in which we will live, or would like to? How can listening practices evolve, how will we listen or how differently could we listen to the world around us, tomorrow?
Inhabiting the world brings to us questions about how we want to manage our being in it. How do we want to inhabit the world sonically? How sound and listening do actually affect our way to inhabit it? Have we lost some of our abilities to resonate with the world? What remains to be heard? Where could the practices of listening and attuning take us to?
Soundscape Peru, an audiovisual 360° installation Comparative analysis on the meaning of environmental sounds in different sound communities and their public facilitation

The installation "Shucuyariy - An Audiovisual Journey in 360°" processes various themes within the framework of Acoustic Ecology in a 360° audiovisual installation. The interview, sound and video recordings on which the installation is based were created during a research trip through Peru and deal with the question of how communities from different regions of Peru perceive their acoustic environment and whether environmental sounds in the communities studied have a special meaning or a significant influence on the structuring of everyday life.
