Pioneering Sound Art with Bernhard Leitner | RESONATE

“For me, sound is a building material.” -Bernhard Leitner
Bernhard Leitner talks about his sound spaces with reSITE at RESONATE. Rather than the sound being seen as something existing in space, Leitner describes his work in creating spaces with sounds. Using the “vocabulary of sound,” Leitner discusses how he uses sound to create new worlds, and how sound can be a tool of design itself rather than an afterthought. RESONATE: Thinking Sound & Space was a conference on architecture, art and sound. It took place on 12 February 2018 at MAAT Museum, Lisbon, Portugal in collaboration with Meyer Sound. Video co-produced by reSITE & Canal 180
Bernhard Leitner is a Viennese artist, who after initially working with the New York Department of City Planning, taught at New York University and the University of Applied Arts, Vienna. He was been working with sound since the 1960s, and includes physical-acoustic analyses on experiences of spaces that are formed, designed, and composed with sound, as well as research on how three-dimensional movements of sounds shape new architectural spaces.

reSITE is an international platform connecting people and ideas to improve the urban environment. We work at the intersection of architecture, urbanism, politics, culture, and economics.
We feature thought leaders whose work pushes the boundaries on how we build, design, regenerate and create life in cities, and frame them through many lenses, convening them in one place. We act as a catalyst for social action and innovative leadership. We encourage an exchange of ideas about making cities more livable, competitive, and resilient. We protect and promote public space, architecture, and sustainable development in cities.
All to make our cities more livable, competitive, resilient, inclusive, mobile, and designed with humans in mind.
