Data-Walks Workshop
Data-walks by Nikos Bubaris & Ismini Gatou
Data-walks is a three-day intensive workshop for creating geo-located audio walks. Developing a relational approach, in the first part of the workshop, we improvise on tactics through which we engage with the city and become affected by it. During our sensory walks in Volos, we interact with urban materialities in order to produce sonic data that express resonances and flows of the urban soundscape. Moreover, we capture the sonic imprints of our own interpretations regarding the ongoing interplay between our-self and the city.
In the second part of the workshop, we create a locative audio walk with the use of the online platform Echoes. The collectively-produced sonic data thus will turn into an affective cartography of acoustic narratives, through the creation of a location-aware mobile application.
In the third part of the workshop, equipped with headphones and mobile phones, we will walk and (re)experience the same area where our first sonic data emerged.
