Geo-situated Sound Walk
2025
John Wild
All Red Line is a sonically augmented walk tracing the underground fibre-optic cables, mapping key nodes in the UK’s internet infrastructure.
As participants move through this landscape, they encounter the physicality of the internet and a hauntology of technical objects — where remnants of Britain’s colonial past emerge within the fabric of today’s digital networks.
The walk starts from Blackwall DLR and each data centre is accompanied by a geo-located audio composition, created from field recordings of AI servers.
