Partner school

3rd primary schools of Tavros

Through on-site recording, mental mapping and the visualisation of sounds, 4th grade students of the 2nd and 3rd primary schools of Tavros pathed a route via the architectural landscape and soundscapes of their neighbourhood, all the way down to the sea.

Over four sessions and using various sonic and visual tools they imagined the distance that separated their schools from the shore.

The school workshops were designed and realised by Natalia Bazaiou (Athens Superscript) and Vassilis Tzavaras (Gnous).
