Practice-based Research / Radio Program / Citizen Proposal / Collective Listening Session
NYA LÖVHOLMEN - a citizen proposal + radio program & collective listening session
︎︎︎ June 2023
NYA LÖVHOLMEN Radio was broadcasted live on Radio Sydväst 1 June 2023. A radio show that takes its starting point in a sonic journey through history.
We discuss and reflect on the city, sound, power and politics - who the city is for and how we today, right now, are building the future.
We talk about auditory aspects and how cities are becoming more and more silent. And a little bird takes us on a flight through our citizen proposal -NYA LÖVHOLMEN, before we land together in a final call for action.
We invited the public for a collective listening session in an outdoor public space adjacent to Lövholmen, in connection to the radio program.

NYA LÖVHOLMEN MAGAZINE #4 - a sound magazine
︎︎︎ May 2023What does a neighborhood that doesn’t yet exist sound like? We hear sounds, but we also feel them in our bodies. It hisses, rustles, roars, knocks, hums. The heart races, the ear buzzes, we feel and hear how it throbs in a tired foot, we clear our throats, swallow, chew so that our heads crackle, laugh - it echoes.
NYA LÖVHOLMEN MAGAZINE #4 - a sound magazine, is about sound, hearing and sonotopes.
