From the artist: ‘Car horns are a key traffic communication device in India.
 I was shocked by the sound of them at first, but I slowly got used to them. I could hear many types of horns, and I started to envisage them as some kind of experimental music that went on in the streets. In addition I could see that most of the people enjoyed blowing their car’s horns, doing it naturally, sometimes playing the horns for the sake of it.

I felt the desire to take part in this strange communication game and I decided to create a device that would control different horn sounds. By using this device me or anybody else could compose his/her own improvisation or horn sound composition. Additionally they could interact with the traffic and people in the streets.

I recycled the front part of an out of use rickshaw, I fixed different horns to it, and also made a keyboard that people could use to produce different horn sounds.
