Anywhere All the Time, a permanent sound track to your life, is an application for android devices that sonifies wireless Wi-Fi and GPS networks, providing a sonic presence to phenomena that usually lies beyond human perception. As one walks through the city intercepting these ubiquitous infrastructures, their sonification creates a compositional mapping within our everyday environment, and the listener is able to access their personal soundtrack, anywhere, all the time.
Portable smart devices, by the very characteristics that determine their success, also make them particularly suitable as surveillance devices. Wi-Fi technology, cell phone towers and locative media provide specific geo-reference to material territories so that it becomes possble to quite literally 'follow the actor'.
By providing a direct sensory experience of data through sound I'm interested in how it feels to live in a culture where our public space is mediated by technological infrastructure that simultaneously empowers via communication and compromises via surveillance. Do our smart devices operate primarily as bridges or walls?
