Bennett explains his preoccupation with sound in his text “Let there be noise “(2003) as follows:
“Noise is the sand between your toes, the kink in the cable, the music that keeps you awake and the sea that lulls you to sleep. Noise is accident, chance and luck. Noise is the vibration of life itself.”
The soundwalk is introduced by Renate Zentschnig, artistic director of Soundtrackcity. She will comment on the walk and say something about the power of soundwalking and the opportunities it offers to make you aware of the audible city. Afterwards, participants walk the route together. The walk takes about 60 minutes. Justin Bennett is present.
