Visualizing The Sounds of Planet Earth

Soundscapes visualized in fascinating waveforms.

We have a collection of found sounds that we’ve gathered from travels around the world. They are a snapshot of time and place, bottled up and saved.

In a similar fashion, this brilliant series captures sound from all manner of beautiful places around the globe.

But in addition, they’ve created stunning visualizations of those sound waves, making the place come alive with your eyes, as well as your ears.

Found sounds from the Sahara Desert are rich, thanks to the sand-swirling visualizations.

Likewise, Bwindi National Park in Uganda comes alive with the sounds of the jungle paired with the visuals of sound waves draped in plant life and greenery. 

The Sounds of Earth is part of a project for Expedia, we’re thrilled to see such creativity.

Below each graphical poster for that area is an embedded sound clip. Take a listen. 🌍 🔊
