soundscape
next time your're outside, stop for a moment and listen for the:
- approaching woosh of the bus
- pair of heels steadily clicking past
- gentle chirp of the walk signal, too far away to make it in time
and maybe you'll take a similar walk to what created this image. most of the time i'm out walking, my earphones are in, drowning out these sounds. i wanted to take the opportunity to appreciate these simple sounds when the opportunity presented itself. by following the loudest sound within earshot until a louder one came along, a line through the city was made using the GPS software LiveTrkker. that line was warped and edited into a poster welcoming people to portland, and from that, a sepia-toned, framed version of the poster was made, for funzies.

the images were put together into GIPHY, and embeded in html, so you can see them here on this site! take a look at some of the other stuff done with/related to this project:
