A composition for voices, movement, and space in the Zalesie neighborhood of Wrocław. Inspired by the spiral form of Leoncjusz Ciuciura’s open composition, we circled around the green areas along the Odra River, Wroni Park (Park of the Crows), and a hill known by the local community as “Kilimanjaro.” We captured its sounds with our bodies as receivers and then mapped them into a graphic score, a composition performed together. Tuning into the soundscape, we actively dialogued with them, repeating the sounds we heard, searching for synchronicity, and creating a layered piece.

Małgorzata Wrzosek – the score of the “Mapowanie akuzmatyczne” (Acousmatic mapping) composition.
