'Strange Lines and Distances' is an award winning two-channel audio-visual installation, which examines Guglielmo Marconi's first transatlantic radio broadcast. The work is inspired by Marconi's belief that sound never diminishes, but rather grows incrementally fainter and fainter. He believed that with an adequately sensitive receiver, one could amplify the echoes of history. Strange Lines and Distances looks at and listens to the past, revisiting Marconi's original transmission sites in order to explore the hauntological aspects of radio and landscape. The Installation was shown at Forum Expanded within the Berlinale 2013.
