It uses interactive sound art; the audience can dig their fingers into the carpet to connect, transform, and decode the carpet symbols from the past into the present by listening to radio noises. Duration is flexible. The documentation is from the festival Space21 for sound art and experimental music, where I am a founder and curator of the festival.
