Sound as a dynamic interface of connected experience

Use sound to help us experience sense of community, bringing together behavioral and emotional forms of engagement in one, shared moment

What if we use sound to help us experience sense of community, bringing together behavioral and emotional forms of engagement in one, shared moment?

As two cars pass each other, gently “wind chime” sound enters - gradually overlaying audio content - and lingers inside, inspiring sense of transient connection and shared moment.
