Luisterwandelingen

Sound walks
Year: 2023 - 2024




"Luisterwandelingen" is an annual soundwalking project taking place in four different landscapes in Wageningen. The botanical garden Belmonte Arboretum, the city centre, Droevendaal community and the floodplains next the Rhine river. During the walks we listened attentively to the landscapes, played with the soundscapes and attuned to the underwater world of the Rhine with hydrophones. The walks offered a platform to connect with the landscapes through embodied ways and follow the stories of each place by listening.
