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.
