About

Founded in 2018, Sonic Territories is a Vienna-based festival and platform at the intersection of sound, audiovisual and transdisciplinary art. Based primarily in Vienna’s urban peripheries and decentralised venues, it invites artists and audiences to engage with sound as a sensory, emotional and intellectual medium.

Its programmes bring immersive audiovisual works, site-specific installations, DIY electronics, sonic fiction, experimental music and critical listening into dialogue with places, communities and changing environments. Festivals, events, workshops and laboratories create spaces for artistic exchange and expand the field of sonic and performative practice.

Feminist and decolonial perspectives inform collaborations between local and international artists. Since its first edition, Sonic Territories has presented more than 200 artists from Austria and around the world, including Electric Indigo (AT), Rojin Sharafi (IR/AT), Zoë Mc Pherson & Alessandra Leone (FR/IR/IT), SØS Gunver Ryberg & Sybil Montet (DK/FR), Antonina Nowacka (PL), Asuna (JP), Aho Ssan (FR), Isabella Forciniti (IT) and Renick Bell (US/TW).
