The Sound of Someone Else

Chris
clipped THROUGH MY EARS the other day. Hmmm sounded familiar. Exploring my archives I came across this little snippet from 2003:

the Degree Confluence Project / “The goal of the project is to visit each of the latitude and longitude integer degree intersections in the world, and to take pictures at each location. The pictures and stories will then be posted here.” But what does the world sound like? I’d love to stick a mic at each intersection and just transmit. I think Philips (?) had a design project similar to this, ambient world or something. Probably a pretty quiet world actually.

So here’s one for the lazyweb! The author describes “Through My Ears” as:

[…] an experimental blog that provides an immersive audio experience. I will be embedding binaural audio clips that will allow you to experience the audible aspect of different locations.

It’s oddly relaxing. Give it a listen.
