The proposed work to be developed for a suitable site in your region will be part of the pan-European Open Form Pavilion of Air series and follows on from Pavilions for Warsztaty Kultury (Lublin, PL), Meetfactory (Prague, CZ), Sirius Arts Centre (Cobh, IE), Folldal Kommune (NO), Struer Tracks festival/Sound Art Lab (DK), Piteå Science Park (SWE), Kunstkvarteret Lofoten (NO) and Bergen Architecture School (NO) (with additional works in development to ultimately encompass 15 sites across 9 countries by end of 2023). Each Open Form Pavilion of Air offers a modulation of a location and its context. The series and its name draws on Oskar & Zofia Hansen’s “Open Form” architectural concept and their work developing social housing and a concomitant renewal of public space in post-war Poland. The Open Form Pavilion of Air series offers a playful renewal and reframing of public space as an essential engagement for the community. The audio work can be enjoyed as a soundwalk using a smartphone via the Echoes app with headphones to create a new experience of the site delineated within the ‘Pavilion’. Visitors become participatory listeners – by traversing the site using the app their choreography changes the sound from the Echoes app. The Pavilion itself comprises a roof made from sound – without walls - which is heard to extend across the site. This isn’t a solid roof but a porous airborne concept, one that retains a stark physicality, letting in the elements and surrounding sound but also changes them while subtly reframing visitors' experience of the location's audiosphere.

Approaches underlying Hansen’s pavilions using the logos of 'Open Form' architecture:
The Pavilions of Air parallel Hansen’s move to use the designs for the international fair pavilions as* “testing ground for designs that shifted focus from the object to ‘cognitive space’: to the individuals using them” – the modulation of the individual’s perception by the Pavilion of Air occurs at a variety of levels, among them the individual’s experience and apprehension of “space” ie location around them and its context. [* quote: Krzysztof Kosciuczuk - Frieze magazine]

Equally, as a spatial choreography through which listeners each move through on their own paths to compose their own piece through this movement, the Pavilion of Air echoes Hansen’s “pavilion for the Warsaw Autumn Music Festival (with Zofia Hansen, 1958) [which] were not only meant to expose the displayed products (or music in the case of the latter), but also turn the visitors into active participants and co-creators of their spatial experiences”. In the case of the Pavilion of Air the displayed content is the site over which the invisible roof rests without the material support of walls, only sound, air and imagination… [quote: Institute of the Present - Aleksandra Kedziorek]

Furthermore, as Hansen commented during the Team 10 meetings in 1960 “Open Form has the task of helping the individual find himself amid the collective, to make himself indispensable in the formation of his own environment,” – the Pavilion of Air aims to allow, produce or effect a realization within the individual that reframes their engagement with the location, the site and thereby society-at-large.

“It would seem that society should facilitate (and not impose, as Closed Form does) the development of the individual. There needs to be a synthesis between the objective, collective, social elements, and the subjective, individual elements.” Similarly the individual sound elements of the Pavilion of Air combine and are combined by the listener’s movement to produce a gestalt effect that facilitates this shift in site-perception.

Project background in previous sound/architectural works:
Open Form Pavilion of Air follows on from these previous selected architectural works:

- Climata (2015): recorded entirely in 15 of James Turrell’s skyspaces in 9 countries where each Skyspace was briefly transformed from an architectural light installation into a sound installation where you can hear the air move.
Climata was realized as an:

- SPECTRES (2019/20) - composed entirely of in-situ recordings with tone generators in 9 post-Communist architectures, it presents an interrogation of contemporary society across the threshold of the architecture from a former, but recent, epoch. SPECTRES was realized as an:

- Threshold Works No 17 (2021/22) – a multichannel work and permanent collection acquisition - entrance sound installation for Polish National Museum in Kraków permanent exhibition  ‘Sections: Gallery of Polish architecture of the 20th and 21st centuries’ ('Przekroje: Galeria Architektury Polskiej XX i XXI Wieku') https://www.recordedfields.net/installations/sections/
