cAPture
A lot of the activity that enables modern society is often quiet, it resides in our pockets and might only buzz or ping us if we allow it. What happens inside these devices is a constant flurry of networked activity that, unless you were an engineer listening into the network traffic, you would never be able to see. Additionally, much of this data provides a unique glimpse of a device’s activity, the sources it visits, as well as it’s location and behavior.

cAPture is a project that sonifies this networked data to the devices that are connected to it’s access point. Participants are encouraged to connect to the installation’s wireless access point that puts to sound how talkative a device is, even admist little to no interaction. With many devices connected simultaneously, the sonic experience can unfold into both a saturated network and waterfall of sound.
