Mobile and locative media are systems of technologically mediated communication providing the opportunity to relate physical environments with digital information in order to create “hybrid” spatial experiences, which may function as the context for cultural activities. This has led to new ways of creating, representing and communicating meaning in relation to space and consequently to emergent artistic practices. At the same time, the emerging field of urban informatics addresses novel ways of interacting with our cities and their digital content. Mobile sound art, at the intersection of these technological innovations, deals with the urban environment as a musical interface and employs mobile devices that offer new possibilities for artists to actively involve their audiences. This paper focuses on the soundwalk, as a subspecies of mobile sound art, and attempts to shed light on the relationship between sonic artistic practices and the everyday mobile communication experience by investigating specific examples of this art form.
