Sustainable audio pollution in the city
With Vélophonik, Dånk! Collective examines the audible presence of bicycles in traffic, with the use of green power.
Bicycles are equipped with speakers connected to their dynamos, some of them with additional effect pedals, contact mics and switches. Riding these bicycles results in loud noises that varies according to speed, gear level and bicycling style and also creates a Doppler effects when passing by people. All power and sounds come from riding the bicyles.
Vélophonik workshops and performances have been happening at various sites and cities. The piece is a Dånk! project and more information and video documentation is to be found on the Dånk! website.

It’s been a while since I posted here. I have been involved in many things since I posted last time but nowadays most of my activites are listed on my collective Dånk!’s website. So check out www.daonk.org. And check out my list of activities there. I will at some point update this page and integrate it with the Dånk! webpage. The content on this site is of-course still valid but not as regurlarly updated as the Dånk! site.
Sunrisescape is a sonfication of the sunrise. The lightwaves from the sun are translated into audible soundwaves with the help of a light sensor. It is recorded from the time before the sun starts to rise over the horizon to lightens up the sky until the sun have risen high enough to give a more constant daylight.
Sunrisescapes has been recorded at various places at various times of the year.
