But the noises are much less annoying when you can control them. The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tenement.org\/\">Lower East Side Tenement Museum<\/a> has commissioned an online exhibit called <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tenement.org\/folksongs\/\"><strong>Folk Songs for the Five Points<\/strong><\/a><\/em>. It starts with an interactive map of Manhattan&#8217;s downtown neighborhood.<\/p>\n<p>Colored circles dot the grid of streets, marking spots where the museum&#8217;s artist-in-residence David Gunn recorded an assortment of audio clips. Each hue represents a different genre of sound, ranging from spoken to musical to ambient. Up to five clips can play at once, each with its own playback controls at the bottom of the page. Vectors on the map can be shifted with the click of a mouse, layering various sounds\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Received this tip from Spacing Wire reader James Koole &#8212; an interesting sound project from New York City.
