LUCERNE STREET STUDIO

Day 2

In August and September 2011 Found Sound Nation ran a Street Studio project at the renowned Lucerne Festival in Switzerland. As part of the Spotlight program of the Lucerne Festival Academy, Found Sound Nation set up small mobile recording studios to link festival musicians with Lucerne residents and visitors, as they worked together in the creation of new works. The street studios were based at various locations surrounding the Kultur- und Kongresszentrum Luzern (KKL), and these tracks were created on the spot with material gathered from people on the streets of Lucerne. The videos, made by Temujin Doran, are quick looks at each of our four days at the Street Studio. Also, all of the music created at the street studios can be freely downloaded by clicking on the links below.

Found Sound Nation with the Lucerne Festival, 2011

For the next three weeks, Found Sound Nation is leading a series of projects in collaboration with the Lucerne Festival in Switzerland. This week’s project: a music-writing workshop (using found sounds and audio technology) at a school in Nebikon for students with behavioral and social challenges.

Tomorrow, we’ll host a party at the “Bouvette,” which will include a presentation of our work with the boys, and live mixing of sounds created by the people who stop by the party.

As part of the Spotlight program of the Lucerne Festival Academy, Found Sound Nation will continue over the next two weeks with a street studio project, in which anyone can come off the streets of Lucerne to record and mix sounds in our mobile street studio. The sounds will be posted to our site periodically as we mix everything together.
