Urban Imaginaries Ottawa is a multidisciplinary public-facing project led by Dr. Chiara DelGaudio, Associate Professor in the School of Industrial Design at Carleton University. The project explores how cities are sensed, imagined, and contested through sound, media, and spatial practice. In collaboration with the place of sound, the first edition brought together nine distinct acts, three of which were developed as dedicated episodes for the show: episode 23, guest-produced by sound artist Helena Krobath; episode 24, featuring an interview with Dr. Tracey Lauriault (Carleton University); and episode 25, guest-produced by Dr. Milena Droumeva (Simon Fraser University). The collaboration also included a public soundwalk (act 4), extending Urban Imaginaries’ commitment to critical listening and situated urban inquiry.
