Sounding Out! Podcast #11: Recapping SoundBox Project #Tweetasound

DOI: https://doi.org/10.59350/3hw4h-01a81

In September of 2012, the team behind the SoundBox Project hosted an event online called #Tweetasound. Supported by the Sounding Out! blog and with help from many audiophiles on Twitter, the event was staged to encourage people to experiment with making social media more noisy. This podcast reflects on the experience of encountering sound in digital environments while also sampling an array of content produced during the event.
