Call for participation in documenting Montreal's Soundscape
http://cessa.music.concordia.ca/soundmapThe Montreal Sound Map is ready for submissions. We are accepting all
(unprocessed) audio recordings (past and present) of Montreal's sound
environments. Our goal is to gather and display as many recordings as
possible from all over the island. As we gather submissions, we will
be placing them into a browsable tagging system based on criteria
including:
Sound Source (characteristics)
Location (borough, neighbourhood, municipality)
Date (time of day, month, day of week, year, season)
Environment Type (park, metro, indoors, outdoors, etc...)
Equipment (recording device, microphone, etc...)
Files can be uploaded through the form on the 'Uploads' section of the
website. For more information, please visit the 'About' page.
We are looking for both submissions and students interested in
contributing in ways specific to their area of study. This includes
measuring sound level, taking photographs, and classifying submitted
sounds.
Best,
Max
