Soundscapes along the Rhine

At this »Science Tuesday«, an audio-visual presentation and an electro acoustic performance by sound artist Lasse-Marc Riek will be presented as part of the EFFEKTE Science Festival.

The Rhine at the gates of Karlsruhe has many faces. The German Federal Waterways and Research Institute (BAW) and the ZKM | Music and Acoustics Institute invite you to learn about the countless facets of the river and take an unusual video journey of sound from Iffezheim to Karlsruhe. A mixture of aerial views, landscapes and sound recordings together with short interviews with experts from the German Federal Waterways and Research Institute (BAW) portray technical aspects of the waterway, while showing its unique recreational area.

The performance of the soundscape collage of sound artist Lasse-Marc Riek will round off the evening in the Tollhaus.
