work in progress - an intervention at the former Radio Free Europe Headquarters in Munich as a series of meditation events marking the start of the very first Radio broadcasting in 1951. A sound installation provides an auditory layer parallel to and alongside to the meditations transforming the space in and around the building into white noise at the frequency of 432 Hz - the frequency ideally suited for sleep and meditation. White noise (in slightly different form) had been produced by interfering counter waves from the USSR territory since the very begginning of the Radio´s broadcast. In former Czechoslovakia carried these broadcasting breaks accompanied by white noise a cynic title - "Moscow Boogie" among the listeners. The Radio broadcasted at first in 5 target territories: Czechoslovakia, Poland, Hungary, Rumania and Bulgaria and was built by the CIA. Since 1995 with the centre in Prague. | the intervention will take place in July 2025 as part of Public Spaces Munich/Annuale and Stunde Null - wie wir wurden, was wir sind marking 80 Years from the end of the WWII
