Interaktiver Stadteilführer SonnenbergErleben

What is Sonnenberg about? What kind of feelings, places, narratives, objects and sounds connect the inhabitants with their neighbourhood?

A young and heterogeneous population characterizes the interesting and diverse neighbourhood that is Sonnenberg. However, within the city of Chemnitz Sonnenberg tends to have rather negative connotations. In a student project and via walking interviews, different perspectives were captured focusing on individual stories and personal places. The inhabitants predetermined the route and audio recordings, photographs of the important places and GPS data documented the walk. The result is an interactive city guide that was realised by an interaction designer and is installed on a tablet computer. But in order to get the information you have to go to the places, which are important to the people who live there. In this way, their perceptions can be retraced and compared to your own.
