Slowing Down to Infrastructures by Radio Otherwise

What infrastructures do we inhabit, and how can we give attention to them amid the busyness of our daily lives? Can sustained listening help us slow down and notice what has been put in place to maintain urban life?

In the lead-up to the Copenhagen Architecture Biennale 2025, Radio Otherwise has been developing a generative, durational web radio format that plays with the musical and temporal-rhythmic qualities of infrastructural soundscapes, creating rituals of conversation around the theme of slowing down. Beginning in April and continuing until the end of the Biennale in mid-October, the project offers a chance to focus on attuned and extended listening through live radio, using digital infrastructures in a self-referential manner to draw attention to the various infrastructures at play in and around the urban environment of CAFx.
