Echoes of the Youth Palace
Echoing the Youth Palace is a sound workshop developed by Mladi zmaji in collaboration with the Cona Institute. The programme offers hands-on work with sound, from equipment basics and production foundations to field recording and collaborative editing.
Through soundwalking, recording, and composing, participants explore the acoustic landscape of the emerging Youth Palace centre. The resulting sound composition was used in the documentary Palača Cukrarna and later presented in an exhibition context.
