The acoustic representation of a space. Travelers, strolling pedestrians or simply those waiting at the Wiener Südbahnhof (Vienna South Station) are asked to pause for a moment and – as actors in front of a rolling camera – turn their undivided attention to every perceivable sound in their environment. The vocally produced imitations create a bizarre, unusual cluster of sounds against the backdrop of the already legendary train station.

The music I am interested in does not necessarily have to be called music. There is nothing in it that you have to remember. No themes, only the activity of sound and silence.

John Cage
