Prototokyo • “A Place to Sleep - Thin Cities”

In Indianapolis, across from one of the city’s premiere tourist destinations, the Indianapolis Zoo, there exists a little-known encampment where dozens of the city’s residents make their home in a makeshift tent camp in the woods. Prototokyo layers the biophony from the zoo (the vocalized sounds animals make in their environment) with the railroad’s rhythms to create a composite sonic machine. Hip-hop artist Biz Remain (Bryan Anthony) uses lyrics derived from anonymized conversations with residents who offer up descriptions of life along Washington street that captures the intertwined stories of invisible but resilient neighbors who live along the banks of the White River.
