Project scribble
Björn Jung, Marc Sauter
working title: 'Soundgate'
Aim of the project is a real-time connection between European cities e.g. Kraków, Marseille and Weimar with the »Soundgate«, which transmits the soundscape of the connected cities and also enables directly voice communication. The recorded
sound (environment, speech etc.) will be broadcasted to the other soundgates representing its origin.

The Soundgate will be approximately 1.5 m high and in shape of the european star. The cover plate works as a membrane for sonic production by the fixed low frequenzy speaker. The sculptures as a whole form a body of resonance exchanging recorded sounds and environmental impressions.
The »Soundgates« are placed in the public space, The connection could be realized via UMTS - garanteeing mobile flexibility.
Technical equipment per sculpture:
Amplifier, low frequency speaker, microphone, receiver/transmitter
