'A Year Of China' is a project made to collect 8,760 hours of audio from China that when played, will last exactly for one year. This enormous document will create a mostly non-visual picture of the life, sounds, and noise of China.
Our Soundcloud set is meant to show our progress as well as to allow you to hear the different sounds of China as we receive them. If you have sent us your recordings, please be patient as there is an intricate and mundane system of logging audio into our database so that every minute is accounted for.
After all the audio is collected, a track will be composed with the audio according to the chronological order in which they were recorded. There may be some overlap with multiple audio tracks sometimes, other times there may not be.
Unfortunately, you will not be able to download the sounds of the set UNTIL the final audio track is released. However, all the audio will be under a Creative Commons license and able to be shared and used by anyone as per the licenses.
Please at least include the date, time, and location for each recording submission. Include an image if you have one and feel free to talk a bit about the recording.
Anyone is welcome to submit recordings they have made in China no matter what the length or when it was recorded. Also, please refrain from only recording copyrighted material such as music, tv, etc. We reserve to right to not accept any recording.
When complete, a multi-channel exhibition and online stream is planned to present the track and it will last one year.
All recordings will be under an BY-NC-SA license when released for public download (subject to the recordists permission).
More details to follow soon. Sign up for our newsletter for updates.
