BUZZWA(O)L(R)K(D)

W139, Warmoesstraat 139, Amsterdam
20 October
20:30 - 23:30 CEST

===========================
You are very welcome to join this night walk in hidden and regulated public spaces at the centre of Amsterdam ;) 🔉 🦟
===========================

Are you a local, a teenager, an active neighbour, a digital citizen, a skater, a curious adult, or do you just like to hang out at some square in your neighbourhood? This '#buzzwalk' invites you on a speculative walking tour through Amsterdam for audiating neighbourhoods and cities otherwise.

The walk occurs in dialogue with the work #Hunting #Mosquitos on 'Mosquito alarms’, a technology used in public places in Rotterdam that emits sound at a high frequency, audible only to #young people to deter them from #loitering. It comes as a solution, activated mostly during the night, to issues of urban crime and security. Its use has triggered discussions about the extent to which this technology constitutes #discrimination.
