Sonic Park:
Dave Scott, 2006




I take a walk in the park. At several spots along the walking trail, I stop to record the sounds of the park. This creates a sonic map of the walking trail. By listening to the recordings, a listener should be able to tell where I was. The sounds replace the need for visual references. The graphic map is not needed if a user can remember the spot by its unique sound signature.

Click the red spots on the park map to play each sound file.

At the bottom of this web page are links to the same sound files but the sound files have been shuffled and are no longer in the correct order.


Click the red dots on the bottom image and try to match the sounds you hear with each sound file indicated on the map (image #1).
