This project invites the audience to board the Charleroi light rail for a sonic journey in real-time. Using contact microphones attached to the carriage, a mixing table and effects, the vibrations and frequencies produced by the metro are modulated live to create an immersive composition. This work proposes a poetic reinterpretation of an everyday gesture—the journey between two stations—, transforming public space into a musical instrument as well as into a place for common listening.
A hybrid work between performance and soundwalk which explores our relationship to listening, the city, and the perception of movement, imagining new ways of experiencing the world.
