SOUNDWALK AT SHANGHAI EXPO 2010

Soundwalk participates at the Shanghai World Expo 2010, with its Ulysses' Syndrome sound installation at the Lille Europe Pavilion.
Ulysses' Syndrome is a sonic and visual artwork by Soundwalk retracing the Odyssey of Ulysses across the Mediterranean Sea, from Troy to Ithaca. In 2009, the Soundwalk collective set out to retrace the steps of Ulysses' voyage. Onboard a ship specially equipped with long-range antennas and scanners, Soundwalk recorded all the hertzian frequencies along the shores of the Mediterranean, and thus collected thousands of hours: from the conversations of Libyan fishermen on Greek cargo ships, passing yachts on the Corsican coast and customs officers of the Bay of Naples. The result is a sonic fresco of 24 hours, resonant of the 24 songs of Homer's Odyssey.
