BIOSPHERE
is an immersive performance created for public spaces in which the audience can participate with their own bikes. Conny Zenk, Gischt, Verena Dürr, Ramona Cidej and Matthias Hurtl develop a multi-channel open air sound experience in motion. On the basis of field recordings from different locations in Floridsdorf, sonic atmospheres of the city are captured, from central to peripheral locations. On three evenings in June, a swarm of bicycles with mobile speakers move as a soundride from the last piece of danube forest in Brigittenau to Floridsdorf.
“Understanding sound as relational, as what may traffic across acoustics and electronics, bodies and machines, supporting contact with the world.”
– LaBelle, Brandon. Acoustic Justice, 2021
