On February 4 to 8, sound artists, phonographers, and amateur sound hunters will gather sounds from different places within Berlin. The post-prod booth will be located at the Transmediale Festival in the Haus der Kulturen der Welt. The uploaded sounds are accessible online via an interactive sound map of the city, and will be broadcasted via local FM radio programs in Berlin during the Festival.

For this Berlin.Soundscape-FM project, Sara Kolster, Derek Holzer and Marc Boon from Umatic are seeking contributions of environmental recordings made in Berlin during any time period: sound of autos around Alexanderplatz, distant Turkish music overheard in Kreuzberg or the rain outside a flat window in Friedrichshain, you will be able to upload it to the Soundscape-FM server by locating your sound on a scalable map of Berlin.

More information.

Via the locative list.

This sounds great! It's like a cross between Janet Cardiff and America 24/7 .
