Hailing the Sound Taxi



Sound artist Yuri Suzuki recently collaborated with a Danish headphone retailer to construct a taxi cab in London that has a unique way of taking urban noise pollution and turning it into music, in real time.
The Sound Taxi is equipped with microphones that record its surrounding noise. As it makes it's way through the streets of London, a specially designed software program inside the vehicle converts the noise into unique music in real-time. Passersby will hear the music via the 67 speakers built into the entire car body and the big, shiny Indian horns mounted on top of the taxi’s roof. Finally, the passengers of the sound taxi can tune-in to the converted sounds via headphones installed inside of the vehicle.
