- Wispelberg (Ghent2) is a high school
The schools are next to each other along the waterway Coupure. Ghent is located in the Flemish region of Belgium and has 237.000 inhabitants and 65.000 students.

Our first introduction workshop in Ghent at Mobi. The group is mainly populated by boys (only one girl!) who study to become a truck driver. Each student brought along a sound object (no voice, no musical instrument, no pre-recorded material, or ringtones). This sound object functions as a sort of “audio ID”. We recorded the sounds and evaluated the characteristics of this sound and the associations that come with it.
