Alexander Johannes Heil SubstanzWalk - Introduction to Substanzraum Geo-located Audio Walk Location: Westduinpark, The Hague, The Netherlands Narration: Mabel Calvert Verbruggen Duration: ca. 45min 2020

This slightly surreal audio walk is composed with a mixture of synthetic and recorded environmental sounds. These sounds blend with the actual sounds of your surroundings and evoke confusions which eventually emphasise the latter. Narrated text fragments accompany this geo-located audio walk. http://substanzraum.com

Alexander Johannes Heil

Alexander Johannes Heil (born 1986 in Hamburg, Germany) received his B.Sc. in Architecture with a focus on architecture-theory and -design in 2017 at the Technical University Berlin and obtained his master's degree (M.Mus) in summer 2020 at the ArtScience Interfaculty (Royal Conservatory and Royal Academy of Art, The Hague). His work has recently been shown at the Royal Academy of Art The Hague, the Royal Conservatory The Hague, in group exhibitions in The Hague, and two solo exhibitions in Berlin (2017 and 2018). Currently he is exploring a new concept of space, which is analog to the dialectic of mold and cast. It considers global space filled with actual substances traveling throughout our planet, shaping each other through time and gravity and thus shaping the space we live in. This conception of space is called Substanzraum, the space of substance. www.alexanderjohannes.com
