Happy New Year everyone!

I hope your holidays were happy and restful.

I'm forwarding this message on from Hans W. Koch, who is looking for young people to participate in this "sounds of my neighborhood" project. I thought of you may be able to help.

There is a pdf attached to Hans's message. I hope it forwards, too.

Sincerely,
Eric

hello and a happy new year to everyone!

its my first post on this list, so maybe a few words of introduction: i am a cologne(germany) based soundartist/composer working in different media.
for a project i got involved with, i am looking for participants from as many countrys / cultures as possible. eric encouraged me to post this here:

the musiktriennale, a musicfestival here in cologne wants to do a global soundscape project called: "sounds of my neighbourhood". as a kind of an education project.
the focal point is a creation of stockhausens hymnen here, but for a kind of an education project around it, the idea is to take soundscapes from several countrys around the globe instead of national anthems. the soundscapes will be presented in an interactive installation, which will alow the visitors not only to listen to the individual projects in a quadrophonic setup, but also to intermodulate the different soundfiles via a touchscreen, creating individual trajectories around the globe.
for this i am looking for volunteers all around the globe, who would be willing to work with groups of younger people (15-25 of age) to create a soundscape piece of the neighbourhood, they are living in.
i would be interested to get a certain cultural diversity surpassing eurocentrism. attached is a short description of the project as pdf, but if you have questions, please don´t hesitate...
would you know of somebody interestedin participating, maybe somebody, who already works with the kind of targetgroup i am looking for?
any pointers would be greatly appreciated!

all best from cologne
