Volunteer for the Community of Soundscapes!
Have you ever thought of being able to use a sound camera? Would you like to learn how to create a soundscape?
We are organizing public events and community workshops in Boulder (US), Plymouth (UK), Russeignies (Belgium), and Turin (Italy). The goal is to evaluate usability, usage, and potential impact of our infrastructure and start getting people involved.
If you are interested in setting up a similar local action in your community, please send an email to: sounds@colorado.edu.
VOLUNTEER IN BOULDER, COLORADO (July 23-September 14, 2007) The Boulder project is supported by the CU-Boulder Outreach Committee and is a partnership with the City of Boulder Open Space and Mountain Parks (OSMP) and the City of Boulder Water Quality Department. Participants in the project will be involved in activities of sound mapping from July 23 to September 14, 2007. Group meetings will take place 6-9 PM on Mondays. Individual sound walks and online activities will take approximately 3 to 5 hours per week. Meetings will take place on weekdays after business hours (M-F 6-9), whereas hikes can be taken any time during the week according to availabilities and preferences. Part of the work will need to be conducted online at your home computer. If you don't have a computer at home, technical support and facilities will be provided at a CU university lab twice a week after business hours (M-F 6-9). Participating will expand your listening skills and help you gain new insights into the environment and the community in which you live. Your participation will also contribute to the development of an innovative infrastructure to give voice, express, and explore different perspectives and interpretations of the natural environment. Applications for participating in the Boulder program will close on May 28, 2007 (deadline extended). Before completing the volunteer form, make sure that you can:
