Echoes of the Unseen
EM Walk
In this mesmerizing exploration, Riccardo Mantelli embarks on a Hertzian drift walk through the enigmatic streets of Prague, unveiling the invisible architecture of electromagnetic interferences. Armed with a modified VLF receiver, he captures and amplifies the ghostly glitches and elusive signals that permeate the urban landscape—fragments of an unseen realm woven into the fabric of the electromagnetic field.As he moves through the city, Mantelli transforms interference into substance, revealing an audible and tangible presence of the imperceptible. This journey is not merely an exploration of technology but a poetic act of attunement with the hidden layers of reality, where the city's electromagnetic soul resonates in haunting, unpredictable harmonies.Step into a liminal space where data collides with mysticism, and perception is expanded beyond the visible. This is more than a walk—it's a ritual of deep listening, a cybernetic dérive through the ether.
