PARKLIFE - a sound event
Författare
Summary, in English
In this presentation the theatre maker Erik Pold will discuss the effect of simultaneity and group-dynamics created in the sound event Parklife. The event took place physically in two Copenhagen parks in august 2023, where audiences meet at designated locations, bringing their smartphones and headphones. The overall concept could be described as a form of audiowalk that primarily consisted of instructions to the audience, which made the audience “perform” the piece while experiencing it. At specific scheduled times audiences were able to connect their smartphones to a website with built-in radio-transmitters, allowing the
participants to have an audio track played back simultaneously. In the presentation Erik will also elaborate on the specific type of narrator that emerged through the piece; in the event, the narrator told “the audience what to do and how to think”, but at the same time questioned
his/her right to do so
