//// Winter School 2018
// Cà Bonelli – Scardovari – Po Delta, APRIL 23-27
// “Educating to Silence in the River Soundscape”
The proposal is born over an interdisciplinary convergence (education, pedagogy, geography, design, music, and physical exercise sciences) of interests, questions and issues developed in an international context and shared in different events and projects. As promoters and teachers in the Winter School (WE_ESRS) we are committed to create a flourishing opportunity to enlarge the research horizon, while offering a high-quality level of education to students, PhD researcher and scholars. The challenge is the exploration of new relationships among natural, perceptual and cultural territories to create innovative and inclusive directions for human development and communities building, based on people well-being and well-becoming in the environments.
The WS engages participants in an immersive educational inquiry, focused on "Listening the silence" as paradoxical activity and capability, which stays at the core of the sound experience in everyday life, combining physical, relational, emotional and cognitive dimensions of thinking.
The lens of inclusion and diversities highlights all the activities proposed in the WS, by considering the soundscape as perceptual opportunity to re-conceptualize accessibility of acoustics territories, going beyond the culture of "visuality", toward Universal Design approach. In the WS three main line of research converged referred to the main inquiry interests of the University of Padova organizing staff:
- the net of Unesco International Jazz Day, locally coordinated by Marina Santi;
- the net created by Lorena Rocca around the projet EPFL LEADING HOUSE on Travelling Soundscape as implemented also in the last Workshop on Preservation and Valorization of Sound;
- the ERASMUS Plus Sport Project "IMPACT" locally coordinated by Attilio Carraro.
The three lines could be valorized in the new interrelation created for the WS, anchoring local institutions for promotion of territory and its culture.
It is provided the organization of public events during and at the end of WS.
The work started during the school week will be implemented within the UNESCO International Jazz Day 2018, celebrated on April 30 all over the word and at University of Padova. In particular the main theme of the annual event will be this year “The (im)possible silence” (see the website of IJD-2018).
