"Nous proposons aux flâneurs du Parc Lucie Aubrac aux Lilas de participer à une enquête sonore. Munis d'oreillettes amplificatrices, ils pourront découvrir un univers acoustique qui reste en général inaperçu. Dans le cadre de l'amélioration de la transparence et du bien-être communautaire, les résultats de leurs formulaires d'inspection seront diffusés et exposés en tant qu'oeuvre de collaboration."
We invited the visitors of the park to participate in an acoustic inquiry. We equipped them with devices that enhance one's hearing (Spyears), so that they could uncover a sonic universe that normally rests unnoticed. However, for things to become more interesting, we had placed strange sound sources and hired some actors whose roles were to slightly distort the usually quiet atmosphere of the park. Nobody noticed that everything was fake. Of course many people were puzzled by the weirdness of the soundscape they were discovering.
