Soundscape of Revolution
[Тэкст даступны толькі на англійскай мове] Soundscape of Revolution is an audio documentary investigating the sonic environment that precedesa revolution. It's a research on the relation between sound and political crisis, antagonism andactivism. The turmoil, the riots and the protests actually taking place in Egypt were mostly predictible bylistening to the country's soundscape the months before everything started. Tourists were oftenshocked by the Egyptian sonic environment which loudness and harshness are very far from thewestern standards. The unberable loudness of Egypt, commonly considered as one of its culturalcharacteristic, was actually announcing its revolution.Muray Shafer wrote that sound is used by the institution as a mean of control. At the same time weshould think of sound as a weapon for the people protesting against that power. A kind of “sonic”protest is going on in Egypt since many years, causing a substantial increase in the urban noise.Egypt has been witnessing a sonic war between the government, the religion and the people. Forexemple: the police tracks with their horns and engines exceeding by many decibels all the others;the loud speakers of the mosques, calling for the prayer five times a day; the very loud musicplayed during the weddings, an opportunity for freedom, the only moment where people can legallygather and listen to music; the cars, where people invest a large amount of their small salary, tuningthe vehicles to be more visible and audible.The audiomentaryattempt to describe the Egyptian soundscape, how it was during the days before the revolution started, in order to open a discussion on the role played by sounds in preparing the ground of a political and socialturmoil andreflect on making noise as a way to release the frustration of living in a oppressed condition.
