En favoritt er nå r vi jobber sammen over flere dager og utvikler lyden i selve visningsrommet – f eks i arkitektoniske perler som Niemeyers Hovedkvarter for Kommunistpartiet i Paris, en nedlagt pornokino i Kortrijk, Budapest Kunsthalle og Moderna Museets syv saler i Stockholm. Det blir som en flere dagers jamsession der vi sitter inni et felles lydbilde og utvikler hvert vå rt individuelle verk – sender ut lyder i rommet, lytter – tar bort litt for å gi plass til de andre, lager nye deler til helheten som respons til hva en hører… tar bort… legger til. —Maia Urstad
