Being in the Weather, Listening and Recording is a workshop where you will be listening together outside, paying attention to your fellow citizens in your shared environment. You will make short recordings, so if you have recording gear you like to bring, you are welcome to. It is also recommended to bring a notebook, as you will be capturing your observations from various perspectives and taking notes. Afterward, all participants will gather indoors to listen to the recordings and engage in a collective discussion. The workshop starts at GC De Maalbeek.
