All night, we record sounds at the open air cinema. The recordings are compressed and expanded (not quite the right way) with the spectrum blurred, a harmonic echo. All the next day we play the blurred sounds back into the open air cinema (an example below). The title “M.O.S.” is taken from a term (with no certain origin) used to indicate an image filmed without synchronous audio track.
