Sound Map


Hey everyone,

I just came across what I think is a really cool idea: mapping a city by its sounds. (Remember the NYC map of scents?)

This, as you may know, is a map of London. It's broken up into sectors; you can click on each one to hear a couple of minutes of recorded ambient city sounds. It's actually really interesting, and useful if you want to make believe you live in a real city.

Check it out here:
