Through observing various sections of the Space Station, Maayan has noticed the Station’s unique soundscape. The sounds of the various motors, the differences in the acoustic quality and the reverberations among the various modules, as well as the intriguing human tapestry on board.
This work suggests an album which, on the one hand, will be a documentation of the sounds of life on board the Station and of the on-board crew, while on the other hand it will be an audio expedition through the Space Station for the earthbound listener.
The sound will be assembled from several sources, beginning with recordings within the Space Station itself, use of the ongoing communication between the Station and the various control centers and through to processing data and sonification of part of the scientific experiments.
