Resumo:
À Deriva Sonora (Sound Drift) is a research project that aims to create a historical and artistic overview of thinkers and creators who reflect on urban space as a political and creative power through sound art. Starting from flânerie, Dadaist visits, Surrealist wanderings, Situationist dri- fts and sound walks, a journey of perceptions of urban space is developed. An investigative path of sound as materiality is created based on Pierre Schaeffer's thinking of the sound object; on the evocation of noise for the futurists; on Muray Schafer's conception of landscape and sound ecology; on the thought of sound as a vibration beyond tympanic hearing; on the thought of sound as a means of healing, as a weapon, as affection and others. Based on research into field recordings and sound cartographies, artistic research is introduced that seeks to create listen- ing situations and urban interventions based on two projects: À Deriva Sonora (Sound Drift) and Espelho Sonoro (Sound Mirror). The first proposes a sound mapping in which cities and their urban objects become sound objects through interventions in the public space. The Sound Mirror is an artistic reinterpretation of sound locators from the First World War and interwar period (1917 - 1940), which are now used to listen to the ambient sounds of public or natural space through public interventions. Finally, the research presents the mapping of artistic pro- jects in more than 100 geolocated points.
