 A location swap is powerful because it provides juxtaposition, an opportunity to contrast two states.  Attention is drawn to those characteristics which don't align, and to those that do resolve for unexpected reasons.  We realize the things that we take for granted, and glimpse the structures that frame our perception.
+'''Alex:''' As Kevin already observed very well, we expect a correlation between the things we see and the things we hear. The perception of our natural environment has always been multimodal, it always occured with multiple sensory organs at once. That is due to the fact, that our natural environment does not appear in isolated and independent modalities, it appears much more as a unit of optical, acoustical and/or other stimulations. The "non-natural" ability for a splitted human perception is only possible due to an enormous effort in terms of abstraction. Therefore works like those of Bill Fontana offer the possibility of a multimodal perception, but on the same hand play with our confirmed habits of trying to put everything in a relation.
+I think that the locational switch of sound gives the place a different emotional shape and therefore influences our rational and visual perception. It challenges our habits and makes us reinterpret the occuring phenomenons, which is an ideal mode of artistic examination.
