Summary

Introduction

Tempelhofer: Human Scale is a web-based and locative sound mapping project based in Berlin’s Tempelhofer Feld. Abstract: With the increase of sonic life in digital spaces, new platforms for the exhibition of sound are emerging; from multisensory web interfaces, open access databases, apps for playing with sound, to experimental locative and geo-located pieces.
