Lorenzo Brusci (born 1966) is an Italian sound-experience designer, based currently between Krakow (Poland) and Berlin (Germany). A true visionary of our times, he started exploring the implications of a dynamic sound space design within landscape and the architectural space since late 90’s with the experimental music open group Timet before, then with the Giardino Sonoro project in Florence and SED / Sound and Experience Design in Berlin and Krakow. 2013 sees also Lorenzo Brusci founding with actor Beniamino Brogi the project Relational Being, REL-BEING (www.rel-being.com).
The project is dedicated to aural social representations, mapped on interactive city-maps. The social communication implications of Rel-Being will be explored in the next years and range from traditional media design to advanced computational social design.

8. Radio as a sophisticated Aural Architecture
intensively amplifies and represent the network of life
(let’s remember, Time is on our Side,
why to give up, making everything fast and too superficial?)
We search around a Social Storytelling Model able to train
our teams and our technologies in order to let communities
co-evolve
in an infinitely free mnemonic game system
(story-sharing, community making,
towards a social space free from non-explicit manipulation)
Ethical (Aesthetic) Perspective:
a profound Re-Equilibrium of global and local representation
