Reality Soundtrack is a sound intervention for public spaces, such as post offices, passages, shopping malls, streets… Equipping 25 or more participants with a single radio receiver each, these "sound carriers" walk together through parts of a city, following a given Intervention Map. All the radio receivers transmit the same electronic composition, which is transmitted from a radio station. The audible result of the action is a moving cloud of sound traveling through a city.

VIrtual Mirror - Sound
Giving space a voice

Architectural sound installation/intervention by Tao G. Vrhovec Sambolec

ABOUT THE PROJECT:
Virtual Mirror - Sound is an architectural sound installation/intervention, which listens to ambient sound of a specific interior or exterior space, analyses it, and then tries to imitate and emit that sound back into the space. It can use the architecture as if it was an external ear (pinna), or it can listen directly to the space in between the walls.

In the past couple of years, half of all the staff arts journalism jobs in the US have been eliminated. In some cases, newspapers offloading their staff critics have replaced them with freelancers. In some cases, the freelancers have done a better job than the staffers they have replaced. But mostly not.

Running a good freelance section requires editors who have the time and talent to know what's going on in the culture of their community, who are out listening for the stories they should be assigning. Most editors are even busier just trying to fill their sections than they were when they had staff critics paying attention to their beats. They don't also have time to be out trolling for stories.
