Description
Excerpts from "Pseudosilencio". Sounds recorded by Jaime Pantaleón, as part of his proposal for the workshop Hertziosfera 2013.
Several users and workers at the Jaume Fuster library in Barcelona asking for silence. The sounds recorded were then played through the library's loudspeakers every 40 minutes.
"A reflection on the tranquility of a library, a piece of meta silence, the paradox of demanding silence by creating noise, adding more sound pollution and tricking the listener, to play with the here and now of space and to make both users and workers accomplices".
Hertziosfera is a project organized by Gràcia Territori Sonor in collaboration with Sons de Barcelona, a series of annual workshops in which participants develop sound intervention projects in the building of a library in the Gràcia neighborhood in Barcelona.
