Lithoscapes

Lithoscapes is a library of acoustical Impulse Response recordings made at a number of important geological sites found within the Kent Downs AONB. At each location a sound recording was made of a balloon being popped. This sonic information is processed to create a reverb effect, encapsulating the acoustic space, so that it can be reproduced and applied to other sounds. The web app allows the user to compose patterns of sound to play into their chosen lithoscape.
