Communicating by Bodily Vibrations, an interactive installation consisting of four electric contact stethoscopes, which capture bodily vibrations and transmit them into the room in real time by means of loudspeakers. Up to four persons can use the installation at the same time by holding the stethoscope close to their bodies, in the area where the heart is located, and by pressing the switch, upon which their heartbeat is heard loudly in the room.
