Summer School in Sound and Music Computing & SID Training School on Interactions with Environmental Sounds
July 18-21, 2009 – Casa Da Música , Porto, Portugal
Four dimensions of the audible and hidden soundscapes of Porto are captured along three chosen routes within the city (Riverside, the historic city centre and a trip in metro). These layers consist of binaural sound, ultrasonic, electromagnetic range and underwater/surface recordings.
The gps coordinates of the walks are traced into a sound map which can be navigated with a Wii controller. The interface allows to smoothly switch between the four sound layers, jump between the routes, move backward and forward or change the speed of the journey.
