Drivers to quote Gandhi on Tube

Transport for London has commissioned Turner Prize-winning artist Jeremy Deller to compile a list of bon mots to be used by Tube drivers.

Among the quotes on offer will be Gandhi's, "there is more to life than increasing at speed".

Deller hopes they will make commuters' journeys a bit more thought provoking.

Public Hearing

This started as just a set of links distributed to classes over the past several years but has now expanded somewhat to include more sound art, radio, field recordings and other links related to the creative non musical use of sound. It is in no way complete, so please forward suggestions to pvonzweck [at] yahoo [dot] com
