about

Memoryscapes: Dissonant Heritage in Podgórze's Public Space
Using the case study of Pódgórze, this project explores the role of art and heritage in physical landscape to visualize (or not) dissonance.

Joanna: This Memoryscapes project seeks to provide a preliminary investigation of the tangible and intangible remnants of (dissonant) heritage through mapping physical art and heritage sites in Podgorze’s district and by creating new entry points for reflection and ways of seeing and navigating the intersection of the past and present through the artistic intervention of memoryscapes.

How does seeing our physical landscape through a different lens facilitate new, alternative or forgotten stories and moments in time? And what implications does it provide for how we can shape the future?

Jeremy: The primary source materials of this composition consist of field recordings I've captured over the years, with an emphasis on recordings from Poland. Kraków's ul. Szewska after dark, the Christmas Market in Rynek Główny, John Paul II Airport, and Wrocław's main square all appear in the piece, coupled with nature field recordings from California, samples of old forgotten media on vinyl, and synthesized/processed sounds.
