This app provides the ability to listen and contribute to the Invisible Monument sound art installation.
Since 2011, from the Arab Spring to the Occupy movements, the world has experienced an unprecedented number of uprisings. Invisible Monument is an ongoing series of contributory audioscapes which will be geolocated in spaces across the world where these social movements started and changed history. From the challenges faced by residents in Ferguson to the humanitarian crisis thousands of migrants around the world are experiencing, what do you think the future will look like?
REMINISCE and SHARE your story.
REFLECT on the consequences of these social movements and their outcome.
VOICE your opinion on current debates related to their aftermath.
All audio contributions will instantly become a part of the evolving audioscape, which will continue to be accessible on-site into the future.
This project is a collaboration between Lara Baladi, the Ida Ely Rubin Artist in Residence at MIT Center for Art, Science & Technology (CAST), and Halsey Burgund, sound artist, musician, and MIT Media Lab research affiliate. Design and digital media production by Daniel Koff.
