| Description | Berlin based artist Christina Kubisch has been developing 'electrical walks' which make
audible the otherwise undetectable sound waves generated by electromagnetic signals
that surround us -coming from security systems, mobile phones, public transport and
computers.
Kubisch devised an Electrical Walk around Kensington in collaboration with the Goethe-
Institut, London 10 November - 18 December 2005. Visitors could pick up the
headphones at the Goethe Institut to discover the hidden soundscape of Kensington
according to Kubisch's specially developed map. Kubisch maintains that the technology
of the future is invisible, inaudible, wireless, and it is these hidden worlds that she seeks
to make audible.
