Stereopublic app for iPhone and iPad

How can you be alone in a city full of noise? Stereopublic finds calm within chaos as part of a TEDPrize-winning City 2.0 project to locate quiet places in our cities. A guide for those who crave a retreat from the crowds, Stereopublic allows you to become an earwitness to find places of accidental retreat in the built environment.

Use the app to explore your city and find its quiet spaces. Enjoy the compositions composed for each space, or simply experience the quiet. Do you have your own quiet space? Share it with others by adding it to the map, and request an original composition composed just for your space.

Stereopublic (Crowdsourcing the Quiet) is a participatory online, smartphone and on-site sound mapping of quiet spaces: an individual experience of silent seeking in the crowded circuit of everyday busyness, a sonic health project for built environments.

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
