Abstract

This paper, written in an interview format, collects the thoughts of three international curators of outdoor, public sound installation art parks. Questions were posed by Jordan Lacey to Paul Craenen (Klankenbos, Belgium), Raquel Castro (Lisboa Soa festival, Portugal), and Stephan Moore (Caramoor Center for Music and the Arts, New York State). The questions aim to decipher commonalities across the experiences of the three curators, which are summarised into seven key themes at the end of the document. The key themes can be read as a series of propositions for the possible creation of sound parks in urban spaces.
