What is Sound.ogg 2015?

Sound.ogg 2015 is a collaborative experimental soundscape reflecting impressions of Lincoln with the theme Open Places, Inside Spaces.

Working on the same day 200 people will be invited to record and then edit short soundscapes of their first impression  on visiting the city using mobile phones and open source software. These creations will then be used to inform a larger composition by a sound artist in collaboration with the original producers.ldmap

The piece is organic in its nature but may be about 30 minutes long and may be a combination of music and the  collected sounds. Over about 12 weeks the artist will develop the work but will use this blog to communicate ideas to the original producers and invite collaboration and comments to shape the piece.
