dc.description.abstractSince the 1990s Peter Cusack has been working on projects about mapping by acoustical means. In "Favourite London Sounds" he started with the urban landscape of the British capital by taping sounds, which Londoners had labelled as their most favourite ones (http://favouritesounds.org). After publishing a CD, the collection became starting point for a google maps tool which allows the visitor to listen to places, listed on the map. The project deals with the relationship between sounds and places, the sounds' mediality and raises questions about the possibilities of field recordings as an archiving tool. Other projects in non-urban areas, broadened the perspective to ecological, ethnographical, anthropological and political as well as sociological issues. One of these projects, named "Sounds from dangerous places", was the starting point for an interview with Peter Cusack on February 7th 2012.en
