Tuning Corridor locates one’s body within the broadcast radio band. The work is an empty corridor that responds to the movement of bodies walking from one end to the other of a sensor-based hallway. People’s movement trough the corridor triggers an invisible bank of radios to tune through the local FM radio band in relation to their location within the hallway. Tuning Corridor confronts the viewer with the awareness that the broadcast radio spectrum is around us all the time by way of physically locating the corporeal experience within one of its broadcast information-spheres (the FM radio frequency band). Through this experience the viewers are able to position themselves within a normally invisible structure, allowing them to interact within it.
