We create a 3D picture of the world in sound. Sounds are located in space, and then mapped to the installation, or navigated interactively using an app. As you move through space the sounds move closer, or further away as you approach them and pass by.
In the installation we can create a space in which people move around and as they move they trigger sounds corresponding to their location in space. A single person can explore the space, or two people can have a conversation between spaces.
The environment can also be experienced in an audio (mobile) app, or as a VR experience. The sounds can tell many stories.
# Food Stories
We collect photographs and personal narratives about food from all over the world. We can use Telegram, or Facebook Chat to do this automatically. And we can collect stories manually from other apps.
These sounds are automatically geolocated, or we simply ask the person posting the story to also add a location message to the chat.
The chat-bot then automatically uploads the sound and any associated metadata to a geolocated database of sounds. For our purposes we will use wiki to organise these sounds - to tell stories, and groups sounds together
# Sound layers
We can organise the sounds we collect into layers: - Spoken Word Layer - Sound Art Layer - Music Layer
