Uncertain Matter audio-walk

Uncertain Matter audio-walk

‘There is no need to build a labyrinth when the entire universe is one.’ – Jorge Luis Borges

Åben: 6. Marts mellem 17 og 19.

Bemærk: Medbring din egen smartphone og høretelefoner.

Uncertain Matter er en audio-walk af Ella Bertilsson (SWE) og Ulla Juske (ESK) i området omkring Nordens Hus. Audio-walk’en giver en unik mulighed for at opleve landskabet, samtidig med den indbyder til refleksion over de eksistentielle spørgsmål, der har optaget mennesker siden tidernes begyndelse.

Mens du går i området omkring Nordens Hus, vil du høre fortællinger fra udvalgte mennesker, kunstnerne har interviewet: amatørastronomer, astrofysikere og botanikere. Audio-fortællingerne forbindes med dine egne indtryk af landskabet, og der skabes derved en ny unik fortælling.

Efter udforskningen af området gennem audio-walk’en er alle besøgende velkomne i biblioteket til at give respons samt at høre kunstnerne fortælle om researchen bag projektet.

Kom forbi når du vil mellem 17 og 19 i biblioteket. Audio-walk’en tager omkring 30 min.

Eventen er gratis og vil foregå på engelsk.

About Uncertain Matter

Uncertain Matter contemplates on how to comprehend and define time. It explores boundaries between fact and fiction, challenges perception of time, our place in the universe and our future within it. Since the industrial revolution, people have become dependent on clocks and time

keeping. We all understand time for practical purposes, but the experience of time can also be subjective. Minutes can feel like hours; months can pass by so fast that it is hard to grasp.

The audio-narrative is based on numerous conversations with amateur astronomers, astrophysicists and botanists from Reykjavik and the surrounding area. The story that unfolds gives a personal insight to the thoughts and reflections of the people the artists has spoken to. The project evolved from a three-month residency with the Association of Icelandic Visual Artists in Reykjavik, Iceland (SIM). The project is funded by Nordic Culture Point Mobility Funding.
