honky-tonk on Västerlånggatan


stockholm by waves on ODEO

A man on Västerlånggatan in the Old Town provided sort of a minimalist moving and swaying one-man concert based on merry vocals, a harmonica and a horn to honk once in a while. Passers-by were slightly confused but no one seemed to mind. (2007-05-12)

The short distance from T-Centralen to the Old Town (Gamla Stan)
is a noisy experience with the older “type c” subway cars (2007-05-12)

stockholm by waves

First pixels, then plenty… enter waves!

stockholm by waves is about sound. The sound of Stockholm, to be precise.

We have been strolling the city, producing photos with text. Since the beginning in October 2005 we’ve published roughly 800 pictures on our photo blogs, pixels and plenty. And not just images but also accompanying captions, links to other stuff near and far with comments from around the globe. Since we’re fortunate to be an entire quartet (mind you, with an occasional guest!) we like to think that we provide some diversity in the objects we cover and in how we express ourselves. Fear not, this won’t change!

However, we’re tempted to try adding yet another dimension to your experience of Stockholm by letting you listen to the city. Nice and comforting sounds, strange and inexplicable stuff or maybe pure noise such as road traffic. All this is still very much tentative and whether or not this idea leads anywhere depends a lot on your input. So please let us know what you think. Would you be interested in listening? To what? And how? A podcast?

stockholm by waves is an experiment. So hang on tight, feel free to add your feedback and let’s see… sorry… let’s hear what happens!

hey, you’re fast!

You’re absolutely right. This is the place to be.

However, you’re a bit early. We’re still constructing this site. Meanwhile you might want to hang around at our two photo blogs, pixels and plenty.

Catch you later!
