SONIC CITY - MALMÖ'S CULTURAL SOUND ZONE
Sweden’s first cultural sound zone was established in Malmö in 2021.
Five years later — what happened?
Who makes noise? who silences them? Who keeps quiet? who listens?
What does the "Kulturljudzon" sound like?
Open Call - Sonic Citizens 26
Are you a creator, artist, educator or activist connected to the Kulturljudzon?
Join us for the annual assembly of Sonic Citizens. The theme for 2026 is creating together and building community.
