Intention

The big idea behind this project was to try to create and use the audio pareidolia effect in a meaningful way. Audio pardeidolia is usually something that just happens in the wild. Ghost hunters will use the effect to their advantage to make it appear as if spirits are talking, but they don't deliberately add it to their videos. We thought that it would be  interesting to try to generate the effect by ourselves and use it in an artistic way. 

Our goal was to create poem that would be "read" using the same audio track for each line. We attempted to utilize audio pareidolia to trick the listener into believing multiple lines were being read to him or her. The idea for this project arose from listening to Rachel Gu's presentation and Kaalen's desire to feature an audio illusion. This project seemed challenging but incredibly rewarding to attempt.
