SOUNDTRACK: AMSTERDAM

‘Soundtrack: Amsterdam’ consists of a Walkman with an audio cassette, which is to be listened to while walking through the centre of Amsterdam. Listeners can choose their own route.
The collage of city sounds on the cassette supplements the ambient noise that surrounds the user while walking. The tape and Amsterdam together form the work.
In order to do full justice to the work, the volume should be adjusted so that the street noises can still be heard and they merge with the sound collage on the tape.
