#DIPHTHONG PRODUKTION

Pause. Listen. The audio walk STIGMA2, created by the Diphthong Collective, invites you to step away from the Christmas bustle for a moment and experience the city with different ears. At several stations along the route, acoustic windows open into the lived realities of people who are often compelled to spend much of their time in public space – people experiencing homelessness and people living in material poverty. What does our city sound like when we listen to those who are so often unheard? And what might a society sound like in which everyone is recognised and taken into account?

The audio guide is self-guided and publicly accessible. Those who book a free ticket via rausgegangen will receive a city map with the marked stations at the meeting point. A simultaneous sign language interpretation is optionally available. Please bring your own smartphone and headphones. Loan devices are available on site for a deposit.
