Sound Mapping
by: Iain Mott, Marc Raszewski, and Jim Sosnin
I found another sound oriented locative project: http://www.reverberant.com/SM/index.htm. It produces sound that relates to “tilt, azimuth and forward and backward velocity”.
I thought this was interesting, because the technical aspects of the sensors seem to be fairly basic, yet still provide a variety of interaction information. Technology that must travel with the user also takes a form that I haven’t seen in other locative projects, which is rolling luggage. It also uses a more accurate GPS system called a Differential Global Positioning System, which uses “an additional radio receiver that receives an error correcting broadcast from a local base station.”
