The security guards will perform their duties using a lapel microphone. At the same time, this sound can be heard through headphones from a distance. 

Among the various surveillance practices that exist, sound recording is associated with stealthy or covert actions, such as a telephone tap in an act of espionage. This matches with the environment of art exhibitions, usually places with low voices and few noise disturbances. In this sense, Amador e Jr. Segurança Patrimonial Ltda. provides Listening. Our team will be using a lapel microphone throughout the procedure. This way, it will be possible to capture the sounds made by the security guard and the reactions around him synchronously; the audience will be given a device with headphones to listen to what is being captured in real time by the security guard's microphone. 

With this listening system, we want to give transparency to the dialogs between the security agents and the other agents and visitors to the institutional art spaces. Thus pointing to the pure conduct of the contracting institution towards its audiences, exposing their conversations and sounds without any fear. 

For a quality presentation and better promotion of democracy and transparency, hire us. Amador e Jr. Segurança Patrimonial Ltda.: Listening!
