About the course
The Sounding City - Sonic Interventions and Storytelling for Liveable Urban Spaces Summer School is offered in partnership with Struer Sound Art Lab, and Struer City of Sounds.
Both partner-organisations are part of the Struer municipal strategies for enhancing sound environments and sound art as part of city planning and development, and both organisations supported by cultural institutions in Struer (including the local art council, specialized in sound art) and by Sound Hub DK and Bang & Olufsen.
