In March 2009 a small town in Iceland was filled with speakers. The Seydisfjordur village was turned into an extraordinary sound-system for a week. Sounds by Richard Fearless ( Death in Vegas ) Mum, Bob Dylan, Toumani Diabate, Roberto Goyeneche, Murcof, Federico Cabral, Guillemots, etc.
Good idea but no Radiohead or Nine Inch Nails? [YouTube]

Re: no radiohead or NIN — I guess people have taste.
/runs
too expensive ;/
I agree with Burhan! I dont know anyone who likes NIN! The speaker system reminds me of when I lived in Myrtle Beach, SC. There was a part of Myrtle Beach called “Broadway”, where they had speakers all over the place. It gave it a very nice romantic/happy touch. I miss that place!
Having NIN Ghosts playing randomly around town would be really trippy.
This whole thing is amazing, i wish it could be in more places.
