Outline
An audio interaction installation where users can synthesize environmental sounds from around the world. Atmospheric field-recordings were crowdsourced from diverse geographies, totaling 80 sounds from 35 different countries. The installation empowers users to synthesize new sonic environments by connecting geospecific sound modules representing different regions. The project aims to achieve a utopian view of world collaboration.
