Atmosphere Box

Atmosphere Box is the result of collaboration between Abigail Johnson and Andrew Dyet. It is a sound sculpture that uses sensor data from the environment to synthesize sound. Originally designed for permanent installation at Chateau D'Orquevaux in Champagne, France, Atmosphere Box exists as a portable sound sculpture that can be placed anywhere in the world and synthesize the data around it. The sound generated by the sculpture uses temperature, pressure, humidity, time of day, and wind interference to set the parameters of the synthesizer.
