Telephony allows gallery visitors to dial into a wall based
grid of 42 Siemens mobile telephones, which in turn begin
to call each other and create a piece of 'music.' Each phone
has been individually programmed with a different ringtone,
which played en-masse, create various harmonic layers all
of which are based in some way on the popular and prevalent,
NokiaTune.

The more people who dial
into the work (whether inside or beyond the gallery walls)
the more complex and layered the audio becomes. A piece of
anodyne 'elevator' musac also plays into the space as a kind
of background layer, and is also an improvisation on Nokiatune.
