Riversssounds

Acting as an online residency opportunity for sound artists worldwide, this interactive platform provides a sonic adventure. Combining an experimental artistic approach with an elegant and simple web architecture, it is dedicated to rivers and their sounds. Thin lines and calming colours reflect a sense of intimacy with nature. The web special features archives of sounds of rivers from across Europe recorded by sound artists and allows users to listen to them virtually, in an engaging gamified way. Users can control the sound by moving the cursor over the grid of the respective river, whereby each motion of the cursor brings forth a new sound from a particular segment of the river.
