This is a response to what was achieved by Vangelis and the Beatles in the 1960s. The sounds have changed but collage stays the same! The artist has layered sounds from sonic walks throughout the city of Liverpool. These sounds are traces of a time, fleeting moments of a memory digitally stored. They are a sonic diary of daily occurrences that we can experience as we walk through most major cities. Cries of revolutions meet buskers, whilst trains screech and brake adding to our sonic palette of noise/sound. This is music to our ears and noise to others. This is the sound of the city! linecrosscurve + Pete Greenwood - THE STATE OF EDUCATION The February Declaration There is no graffiti. No slogans. Just sanitised/desensitised culture. Social apathy. Moral impotency. “This generation got no destination to hold” I've walked along this corridor > staircase > through this hall > into this classroom > moved (seven) times round the seasons Now, Iook, respond, return. “Got a revolution, got to revolution” Jefferson Airplane Volunteers linecrosscurve Pete Greenwood reg jula / jala quartet - The Message An improvised cover of Cymande's The Message incorporating industrial sounds.

Imagine how the world would look right now if Lennon's word came true… A better world for your loved ones… A better world for you. Imagine if all the people who believed and felt their power imagined they could change this world… By the second, minute, hour Lennon believed we had the power. If the masses did unite. He saw the war and anger. His songs became his fight 7000 cars in Liverpool Don't put up with your boss's crap Save the planet, don't use aerosols Where does the red road go?

The artist reflects on the patriotic spirit that affected their normal everyday life and made even the least interested folks grab a little national souvenir flag and make a selfie and the marching drills in the dead centre of Tallinn's old town Toompea became great tactile exciters that affected people both aurally and physically.
