Sound Mapping London Tea Houses

DEC 31, 20124 MIN

Description

The interactive tea table covered with a map of London maps a recording from a teahouse in each of the thirty-three London boroughs. Teapot marked with an infrared LED allows it to be tracked by a computer vision system. As the teapot is moved around the map, the vision system recognises which borough of London it has been placed on and plays the related teahouse soundscape.
