Sounds of the Silophone

Noah Adams talks with Emmanuel Madan and Thomas McIntosh about their sonic project, the Silophone. The two artists, who call themselves The User, have given an old grain silo in Montreal a new function by rigging it with broadcast lines and microphones. People can call into the Silophone or submit sounds over the Internet. (5:30) See www.silophone.net
