Join the Sonic West artists in search of hidden green corners in the area around De Hallen. What does it sound like there? Quiet? Lovely? Busy? Chaotic? Everyone has a unique experience. We are curious what is yours.

Listening expedition
You go on listening excursion and on the way you listen to audio recordings of Mayke Haringhuizen and Fani Konstantinidou, the artists in residence of Sonic West. Together with people from the neighborhood they conduct research into the sonic ambiances in West’s inner gardens. Discover the importance of the sonic qualities of green space for the health and well-being of city residents. We end this listening walk in a lush secluded garden which will be opened especially for us.
Please bring your smartphone & headphones, and download the free SONIC WEST app in advance. You can also borrow Soundtrackcity headphones and an MP3 player.
