Central Park Sound Tunnel is an interactive sound installation that reflects the multi-faceted sonic landscape of Central Park, by using digital live alteration of the Delacourt Chimes and field recordings of Central Park. An array of six speakers installed on or near the ceiling of the pedestrian tunnel north of the Central Park Zoo, will take advantage of the bi-hourly Delacorte Clock Chimes to “compose” variations of the chimes and “sonic accompaniments” that dissipate over time. These accompaniments include a harmonic blend of environmental sounds such as horse hooves clopping, birds, chirping, playground sounds, or text articulated with chime rhythms. Each unique “performance” will last approximately up to 20 minutes, responding to sixteen different tunes of the Delacourt chimes which play over a period of 8 hours.
