In the digital era, electronic devices which generate electromagnetic radiation, frequently referred to as electrosmog, have become an integral part of our reality. The author of the project detects and offers insight into the presence of invisible electromagnetic fields, providing them with an acoustic representation using a portable audiovisual installation. The installation differs from existing EMF measurement instruments, as it arranges the acoustic form of electronic signals into visual patterns, which can be interpreted as visual art. A video which forms part of the project helps in understanding the initially imperceptible aspects of our surroundings which can actually determine the quality of human life.
