Klaipeda Soundscape Diary 2010

„I have a large collection of sounds; I have these little tape recorders and I take one wherever I go in my pocket, … (interview with Jonas Mekas at Anthology Film Archives, February 4, 2005 by Liutauras Psibilskis)

During my walks through the region of Klaipeda I wear a small digital sound recordery ready to record this special moments/places, where things collide – mix and set up a unique atmosphere like a landmark. The project is besides information for acoustic ecology also a personal sounddiary. You – the listener – can participate and explore these spaces too.

Each city has its acoustic characteristics – each city has its international sound. It´s a mix that is created in and through the architecture of the city. The infrastructure play´s the role of an conductor and we – inclusive the things we created – and on the other side our natural environment are the musicians.

The KSD is a work in progress. It will be finished on the 15. April 2010.
