Covid-19 has brought many changes to our way of life including a changing soundscape. Pete Stollery, a British composer specializing in electroacoustic music, has been creating sound installations or online sound maps since 2005. During the pandemic he has developed a crowd-sourced sound map, built in the Google Earth Web environment, containing more than 230 sounds from 24 countries around the world that illustrate what life sounds like under lockdown.
With no planes in the air and hardly any traffic on the roads, we began to hear more and more natural sounds, even in cities.
