Washington DC-based duo Bluebrain just released their second location-aware album. ‘Central Park’ is a site-specific work of music that responds to the listeners location within the stretch of green of the same name in New York City. The app contains more than 400 tracks, each tied to a location. They were written to fit together harmonically like a sonic jigsaw puzzle.
It’s pretty apparent that the future is not in virtual reality. The future is layering virtual worlds on top of our reality, enhancing them. Think about the possibilities: you can create virtual worlds of sounds, with sources of music that change depending on factors like the weather, if you’re walking or running, daytime. I’m excited about the future.
And this project. Have a look.
