There’s a new esc.rec. release out! And it’s special. For this release esc.rec. teamed up with MobileVideoNet, an artist initiative that focuses on the possibilities of art, mass media and public distribution. It operates at the frontier of mobile phone art productions and alternative public distribution. In a joined effort we created the first interactive audiovisual release for mobile phones ever!

The works respond to changes in battery level, signal strength and time, which effects both audio and image.

The selection of interactive audiovisuals can now be previewed and, during 2010, ordered via our SMS text message service 2211 (only available in The Netherlands). The interactive audiovisuals will be internationally available for download soon.

Pioneering audiovisual works were created for this release by Garçon Taupe, Radboud Mens, Monofoob, Robert Witt and AvoidAudio.

You can download one of the works for free to check if your mobile phone supports our content. Tip: use headphones when possible, some of the sounds are delicate.
