For the event [typotopics](https://typotopics.musikinformatik.net/), which took place on 2023-07-01 at Erkrather Str. 365 in Düsseldorf, Germany, Dennis Scheiba used the broadcasting capabilities of Gencaster to distribute and coordinate sound material to the smartphones of the audience on the fly. | ||
|
||
A lesson learned from the previous performance at *The Pool* was that the speakers of smartphones have a limited range of audible frequencies that they can emit, and even within this range the material is easily distorted. | ||
|
||
This led to the decision to focus on material optimized for phone speakers which can be found in ringtones. | ||
With methods such as *buffer scratching* it was possible to re-adapt the melodies, which are deeply ingrained, to be noticed and require action. | ||
|
||
The lack of seating forced the audience to move around, creating the desired result of new spatial combinations through the movement of the audience. | ||
Some audience members even began to call each other through the speakers of their cell phones, creating an additional network of communication and feedback to the performance. | ||
