KARAOKE ON WHEELS

ACTIVATING PUBLIC SPACE AS A PLATFORM

FOR CONNECTION AND SELF EXPRESSION

-------------

Simple ideas are often the most fun. Karaoke + bike = Karaoke Mic Bike.

It rolls unexpectedly into public spaces, inviting passersby into spontaneous singing encounters. Fully equipped with battery, screen, speakers, microphones, and a growing multilingual songbook, it can transform any the street into a stage within moments. And when the karaoke party ends, the bike just rolls on and starts another one somewhere else.

Since summer 2024, this project has helped me connect with people from all walks of life across the city. It’s one of the more awkward and unnecessary things I’ve done, and that’s kind of the point. The project simply creates a low-stakes, high-impact invitation to be seen, heard, and a bit silly together.

I like it so much that I made a music video for it (Shabangaroo!). You can watch it below.
And coming soon: a long-distance karaoke bike tour.

Come along.
