Sound-art designer Yuri Suzuki and Moog Music are seeking audio submissions for “The Global Synthesizer Project.” This interactive electronic musical instrument installation consists of users who synthesize environmental sounds from around the world.
Using an archive of atmospheric field recordings from diverse geographies, The Global Synthesizer Project empowers users to create new sonic surroundings through the manipulation of a diverse collection of source materials.
To populate the custom Moog-designed-and-built synth modules with a unique archive of world sounds, the Global Synthesizer Project is asking audio adventurers and sonic scouts from across the globe to contribute local sounds from their regions. Field recordings can be submitted to GlobalModular@moogmusic.com in either .aiff or .wav format.
The Global Synthesizer Project will debut at Moogfest 2016, a celebration of future thought and future sound taking place in Durham, North Carolina, May 19-22. To learn more about this year’s festival, visit moogfest.com.
