The project uses the commonplace yet oft-forgotten walkie-talkie to create a moving urban sound portrait based around Kottbusser Tor in Berlin-Kreuzberg, playing with the array of available and free frequencies and the almost unlimited amount of users that can interact over these different channels. Crackling dialogues ranging from the banal to extremely urgent as well as the multitude of sounds captured by chance while participants rove around the city as "mobile scouts" form a sonic collage of movement.
Commissioned as part of the CTM Radio Lab, led by CTM Festival and Deutschlandfunk Kultur – Radio Art / Klangkunst in collaboration with Goethe-Institut, ORF musikprotokoll im steirischen herbst, Ö1 Kunstradio, and The Wire magazine.
