When Socrates Was An Architect
Or, sonorous variations of the Socratic method of questioning for the dismantling of learning in architecture

Behind the fantasy of Socrates as an architectural trainee is a rigid and clear format: per programme, one question. This line has served to deepen the question of learning in architecture sequentially, allowing lateral leaps between questions without losing forward movement.
Is it possible to learn (and teach) architecture via radio waves? Can the teaching of architecture survive the absence of the all-powerful image? To answer this question, a group of architects will give a lecture on a project of their choice and not their own.

Sound It brings Rádio Antecâmara’s residency to Garagem Sul at CCB. With a wide-ranging programme over six months, the studio welcomes numerous guests, and it is through dialogues between architects, artists, designers, and in conversations with poets or landscape designers, between interludes made of sounds and music, that Rádio Antecâmara takes a closer look at our contemporaneity.
The programme hosts interviews and conversations recorded on the opening day of the exhibition and future programmes, the result of integrating new elements into Radio through Open Call.
Sound It explores the ways in which sound constructs and shapes perception and spatial experience. Transcending the visual dimension and going beyond acoustics, Sound It delves into the perceptual, narrative, emotional and referential dimensions of space. It’s a subjective journey to discover an invisible architecture, a space perceived sonically, an audible and emotional place.
The word is the virus of radio, sound is the matter of space.
