TRAINWAVES
Sound installation, 2024, 2026
Sound composition, multichannel audio player, loudspeakers, bench.

The sound installation Trainwaves takes listeners on an imaginary journey. Train and station announcements from all over the world and in a wide variety of languages are combined and accompanied by slowly unfolding soundscapes. As in a dream sequence, the announcements sound unclear and blurred: stations, languages, places and sounds merge into a fantastical intermediate world – a state between wakefulness and dreaming that many visitors will be familiar with from long train rides. Here, the journey takes us around the world.
