In this workshop Lukatoyboy will present his experience with participatory performances, focused on his current interest in walkie-talkies as sound tools.

Walkie-talkies are for decades used in maritime, aircraft, security, childcare and event production surroundings. they also offer the cheapest communication for a group traveling together while abroad. But how to use them as creative objects?

In the NSA and Wikileaks times, where is the position of the walkie-talkie radio network and what can we learn from it by being tuned in? What are the walkie-talkie specific sounds of Braga?
