Sound city (Public sound installation)


Sound city is a project organized by Esther Schopman & Concordia. It aims for enhancing connections between Mekkelholt (Enschede) and residents by create a immersing sound experience for them.

Through feeling – research – experiment, Yuxin decide to make an interactive sound installation as an output.
Visitors can experience the installation by touching small wax objects on the ground.  Yuxin build the visual part as a virtual camping fire which  make it reasonable for the gestures that people touch the ground.  Each touch activates a mix of recorded sounds, including natural sounds, everyday noises, and the voices of local children.

The installation was opened on June 15 from 12:30 – 15:30 at Tetem EXPO 2 in Enschede (7523 ZL).
