SI25 Urban Small Talk

Urban Small Talk

Close your eyes, take a breath… the ambience has something to say. URBAN SMALL TALK is a digital archive of field recordings collected around Rotterdam, offering a new perspective into experiencing the city. Take a stroll around the soundmap and reconnect with Rotterdam, whether you are a fresh acquaintance or an old friend.

Next Steps:

Scrapped the whole thing, unfortunately. I started from scratch, following this documentation: OpenLayers Simple Example
and then moved on to leafletjs.com

Version

We are thinking about the physical map, maybe we can use legends as a way to guide the audience into adding their memories to the map.
