In addition to the pop up exhibition, various workshops will be organized for architectural students and children.
This event will be held in Ard-El-Lewa neighborhood, Cairo, in one of the creative centers of Cluster Cairo
This year, for Cities has came to Cairo, Egypt! Together with the Urban Research & Design Center CLUSTER,we’re focusing on the soundscape of Ard El Lewa neighborhood — one of the most densely populated and informal neighborhoods in Cairo.
A collective map to visualize various aspects of the Ard-El-Lewa neighborhood will be presented during the week, which evolves gradually day by day through participation.
Sonic fiction opens up the field of speaking about sound in general, reflecting individual sonic experiences and highlighting their stories in an imaginative manner. During the exhibition, participants are invited to explore sonic imaginations and observations by for Cities & Cluster Cairo team.
At the workshops and exhibition, participants have access to for Cities’ original work kit to quickly get accustomed to the methodologies and find their own perspectives on soundscape and field recording. Participants are encouraged to walk around the Ard-El- Lewa neighborhood with this kit to discover the uniqueness of the area.
Just as every neighborhood has landmarks, there are also “sound”-marks that make the place unique and special. The tour will invite participants to look for “Soundmarks” of the neighborhood, as well as to imagine together what they want the neighborhood to sound alternatively.
