In this episode, The Soundwall of God by Pedro Montesinos:

"Every morning, before the sun starts to shine, the voices of the call to prayer from the different mosques of the territory invade the soundscape all over the city. When the closer voices finish, the calls of the crows recover their dominance in the soundscape and the city starts to move. For me is time to go back to bed."

"Commissioned to make some pieces for Radio Art Zone, I took the opportunity to return to the rich and idiosyncratic voice of Irish story teller and farmer Willie Carr, who I'd first met at the epochal Hearsay Festival in Kilfinane, Ireland, in 2014. To my mind, his is the voice of a singular locale, the embodiment of a landscape, a particular place and time, imaginatively recast in these four lop-sided contemporary fairy tales" - Ed Baxter

The parking garage is a the "inferno of the same" (the agony of eros). It is a labyrinth in which the ceiling is often the floor, a schizophrenic environment that does not allow the face to be recognized. The(se) structures or modern functional ruins are a global phenomenon and in most cases duplicate a common design. In this way the parking garage can act as a portal, an access point into multi-linear spaces (this way amd/or that). All parking garages comprise a kind of universal parking garage, when we are in one parking garage we are in all parking garages.
The global effects of the internet have displaced direction and have effectually erased all horizons. The rhizomatic connections of the internet, a(nother) decentralized and/or multicentered domain.
