Walking as a Question, crossing walking, writing and listening
Some years ago Kristine Samson und Sanne Krogh Grogh proposed the Audio Paper bringing together audio, performance and text in a new and hybrid format. This concept was extended into a new form of audio walk, during the Walking Arts Encounters / Conference in Prespa. Writers of these audio papers are invited to talk at this Walk Listen Café.

+6 Ted in the Touristic City
Take a Sound walk of urban critique and research wherever you are; preferably, this might work best if you are in Florence and can understand Italian. You will find that TED the Mole will also guide you in your perceptions of the tourist city. Get back to us once you are done.
Space – We – Space
The audio walk invites listeners to explore the area surrounding Plagwitzer Bahnhof in Leipzig and to discover its hidden sound treasures. Listeners simply start the audio, follow the route, and discover the hidden sound spots along the way. The pictures provide hints how to find these spots and how to use them. Listeners can listen
Soundwalk: “Aquí habita un río” (A river lives here)
This post explores the relationship between Panama City and its urban waterways through a multisensorial soundwalk along the six-kilometer Matasnillo River, the most polluted in the area. It offers an open letter reflecting on what the river reveals about the environment and human connection from its source to the ocean.

This work it’s thought to be a site specific piece. Before listening to it, please choose a place in your city that has been recently modified for the worse, becoming less human friendly and more hostile in its spatial design and architecture: here, there should start your audio walking experience.
You’ll have some instructions during the listening, if you are in, please send us by email your reactions, all this is to be continued.
We are going to tell you a story. You’ll hear about Firenze, the ancient Renaissance city that turned into a tourist themed park and became Touristed City. You’ll hear about Wario Nazdella, the caricatural virtual entity of the turisted mayor, and the polyphonic and metamorphic voice of Ted the Mole, a maverick fictional device – born out of a performative error – who moves in the opposite direction the norm would expect; Ted is a narrative gambit, a multimodal connector, an urban hybrid… and more. Bring an animal attitude and your body and… Have a lucid listening!
