Comissioned by What About Now
Exhibited on 19.12.2019 at de School, Amsterdam
In collaboration with Boris Acket
MUSIC FOR SMARTPHONES

Music For Smartphones is a sound sculpture composed from mobile phone ringtones. The piece consists of five ambient compositions created by layering and slowing down recorded ringtones from a selection of common smartphone models. Through simple manipulation, the piece creates a calm and reflective atmosphere from one of the most jarring and restless sounds of the modern age.

The installation was commissioned by What About Now, a nightly exploration of time, space and sound at de School, Amsterdam.
