Let's Play a Game

Let's Play a Game

In the silence that wraps around you, do you feel the subtle heartbeat of anticipation, like the quiet before a storm; Or is it merely the echo of your own steps? As you wander through the shadows in the narrow corridors, do they whisper timeless stories, or are they merely fragments of your imagination?

The Lament of the Water

The Lament of the Water

Modified, straightened, covered, and invisible water bodies – though they cannot be easily seen or heard – have always been there, making sounds. The Lament of the Water invites listeners to access The Hague’s waterscape from a different vantage point through active, embodied listening. By combining site-specific field recordings, water-memory narratives from diverse cultures and perspectives evoked by the same landscape, and guided on-site listening instructions, these elements intertwine to form a polyphony of urban nature. This soundwalk aims to attune one’s senses, expand their listening spectrum, and reestablish connections with the vibrant matters surrounding them. The starting point for the audio walk is at the Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management, in front of the Rijkskantoor at Rijnstraat 8, Den Haag.
