Lisdon-A Metropolis by doublexposure

Lisdon the Metropolis:
Which are the differences between the sound landscapes of Lisbon and London? To explore that, nothing better than 'seeing' both cities through the ears of a commuter. Each interchange, each conversation, each door opening and closing, every passenger speeding up its daily routine, is going to be put up to the test in a sonic battlefield.

This is the basic premises of the new project I've done with Amadeu Dias. By overlapping sounds recorded both in London and in Lisbon, we've tried to somehow eliminate the distance and create a metropolitan dialogue, whispered in our ears. The project aired on the 21st of October in Radio Futura, as part of the Future Places festival.

Due to the extensive use of stereo to differentiate both locations, for best results we suggest the use of headphones.

We, as the Double Exposure Collective, are currently exploring a similar concept but with images instead of sounds, by exposing the same 35mm photographic roll twice, once in each city. More on this soon!
