Participants in the soundwalk China Daily (1987) by sound artist Cilia Erens at the Muiderpoort Railway Station in Amsterdam. They were listening to recordings made in China at the time of the 'Open Door Policy' (1986) instigated by the then leader Deng Xiaoping. Every participant was handed a pre-recorded cassette to put in their Walkman. Exactly 3min35s before the train from Amsterdam was due all participants pushed the play button.

Binaural recordings made in China (1986) by Cilia Erens with a Sony Professional Walkman WM-D6, a pair of Sony ECM-150t electret condenser microphones (sewn into a hairband), Sony UCX-S90 cassettes (with drop outs), no Dolby, cut and paste editing. Listening with headphones is preferred.
