Atlas of Sounds is an auditory performance project by Ludomir Franczak that brings together stories that share common perspectives, revealing private worlds, strange collections and impossible archives. The work encourages deeper sensitivities to auditory sensations, as we travel through time and space, listening to the earth that holds our ancestors remains. Atlas of Sounds / The Well was commissioned by FestivALT – festival of Jewish Culture in Cracow. It is an audio work based on the Breathing Mountain project, which was made together with Magdalena Franczak in 2015 in the city space of Lublin as part of the Konfrontacje Festival and the Six Verbs Movement. The drama focuses on the city’s auditory sphere and on some lesser known remaining fragments of Lublin’s large pre-war Jewish community. The work is partly based on the sound recordings that were made in the building that houses one of the few remnants of the former Jewish Town: The Well.

Radio play based on the writings of Zofia Posmysz, especially The Passenger which has a long history riddled with a huge number of coincidences and plot twists. However, its foundational experience is the author’s visit to Paris. She travelled there as a Polish Radio correspondent on the inaugural flight between Warsaw and Paris in 1946. She only had a couple of hours to see the city, so she went to the centre and there, in the noisy and crowded Concorde Square, she heard the voice of the guard she was subordinate to as a prisoner in Auschwitz. And with that voice came the past – forcefully, like violent wind. The past which had accumulated in the memory of her body, causing her to become stiff and paralysed, bringing fear which had been smouldering deep inside her and had never really vanished. The voice, as it turned out, belonged to someone else entirely, but the experience became a source of Posmysz’s reflection on the nature of sound.
