Non stop/Ciclo continuo

Cities and Memory - remixing the world

"The original recording of the Metro ride in Rome is very specifically located while also having echoes of travel that are characteristic of cities around the world. A mix of sounds that encompass those from the newest visitors to the city, to everyday commuters. Whether riding the Metro, Subway or Underground, the systems in place allow us to work our way around the familiar and unfamiliar. If you know how to read the Underground map in London, you can work out how to get around in Tokyo or New York or Rome. This remix commences with the specific ride on Linea B, and moves towards a more abstract sense of destination using looping and repetition. The announcements of what is ahead entice us to keep travelling even if it is to just see what is there. Laurentina - somewhere I have never been but where I might end up, at the end of the line, one day."
