Team Sonic City (NGBG-föreningen, Malmö Universitet och Lund Universitets Ljudmiljöcentrum)

Malmö's Culture Sound Zone will once again host local and international participants to explore themes of listening, citizenship, culture and urban development.

Over two jam-packed days as part of Malmö Gallerihelg, we'll hear from international guests, Malmö politicians, visual and sound artists, cultural organisations, and more. Through talks, workshops, sound walks, installations, performances, and conversations over tasty food from local providers, we'll build bridges and imagine shared futures in the Culture Sound Zone.

Below is the schedule at Hypnos. Full program here
