LOL, a Sonic Détournement of the CCTV Surveillance Network

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The author elaborates on her approach in conceiving LOL, a site-specific sonic intervention delivered through the public address system of Middlesbrough’s CCTV surveillance network. The three-part audio collage addresses sociopolitical issues at the heart of British politics post-Brexit, using plundering and détournement techniques. Each public address speaker acts as a disruptive-sounding body, an acousmatic voice standing anonymously above the town.
