Suburb river sketch
16.06.2024

Description

the sound gardener andres bosshard lives and listens in züri seefeld. he takes us on his daily walk through the "töbeli" along the wildbach until it becomes the hornbach and then, after crossing several busy city streets, meets the zürisee. we experience how to actively engage with our daily environment through our sense of listening. we learn how to not only interact with our soundscape, but also how to change our own behavior to create a new city sound. alongthe way, we will be surprised by small guerilla actions of musicians, and we will begin this festival together with a walk of several hours along the suburban river, celebrating the free flow.
