Santa Inés Ahuatempan.

Puebla, Mexico

Thin ki is a place of language and for language. It is a recording booth and a safeguard for the Ngiba language, which will later serve as a laboratory for artistic experimentation. 
​
​"Mobile Cabin" is a trailer that will travel through the neighborhoods of Santa Inés Ahuatempan, in addition to various nearby towns, performing a recording of the voice of the elderly ngiba-speakers of the community. This "mobile caravan" has a recording booth that allows a sound impermeability concerning the environment, has the equipment necessary for the post-production of audio, and also for its dispersion in FM radio signals. This mobile cable can take power, for its operation, from any "power outlet", but has the autonomy of energy through solar panels.
​
​The "movement" of this recording booth is necessary because of the impossibility of access and the distance between the Ngiba communities, but above all, it is necessary because of the mobility capacity of the elderly of our ethnicity: so this "mobile cabin" will visit them from house to house.
