Beijing In The Loop

0 Flares 0 Flares ×

Well, commuting just became way more interesting. A new ‘user-made’ radio app called LOOP Beijing has just been launched, with the goal of providing the perfect soundtrack to your bus ride, or at least that’s what we’ve established from the creators:

“LOOP Beijing uses the existing infrastructure of public bus transit as a significant space in daily urban life, broadening it into a nomadic venue for interactive audio-visual installation and exchange.”

“Passengers can submit their own recordings onto the LOOP Radio platform through calling in or uploading online. A continuous stream of observations, music, ambient recordings, guided tours, personal ads, books on tape and other audio matter shapes the user-generated soundtrack of LOOP Radio.”

Amazing concept. Includes contributions from thruoutin, Luka Yang, Peter Cusack and more.
