Peripatetic Sound


Walking Through Sound, by David Toop, is all about the potential of the wirelessly sonified urban experience:

Electricity liberated humans from darkness but fixed them in space; audio and visual recordings liberated humans from transience but fixed their experiences into frozen memories. Wireless technologies have proved just how willing people are to be disconnected from the umbilical cords that connect them physically to the power grid and to telephone networks.
