Raumdeuter Radio couples audio artworks with public transport routes to reinterpret the social and physical space of the city. Curated by Glasgow based curators Romy Danielewicz and Feronia Wennborg, Raumdeuter Radio presents five new ephemeral public artworks connected to five transport routes around the city.
Each audio artwork guides you through a public transport route, offering a new perspective on the city as you move through it. You can access the works via markers at the start and endpoints of each route, or via our website www.raumdeuterradio.com.
The artworks present a range of perspectives on the city tying together notions of belonging with the elusive quality and strange temporality of public transport as a space. Drawing on themes of return and renewal, each route envisages new ideals for Glasgow.

Public transport is a truly public space. A space where every part of society is represented. It is a space which can be activated to help us learn more about our cities and the others we share them with. Raumdeuter Radio uses audio artworks to facilitate that – presenting pieces which accompany a listener from one end of a journey to another, providing new perspectives and understandings as they go.
