Statement and Progress.

Statement  

What i wanted to do is to have a auditory trace on the people walking through a stair case. the way i wanted to do this is by having a microphone playback an artificial echo of the sound with in a stairwell. this would transform a stair well in to interactive experience. This would encourage people to the stairs and not the elevator. 

Progress

Now i have stated making my patch I have got to the point where i have got a echo working but the echo last only for couple of seconds before the echo sound strange. This is kind of frustrating   when i want it to last at least a minute.

Also the patch looks a too simple because of this i am in the process of thinking about how i could expand on this idea of auditory trace.

Heres the ideas i have had so far on expatiation of this idea.

•   Have two microphones on 2 stairwells But the microphones would not be analyzing the other stairwell. So the person would here someone else using the other stair well.
• Having the stair well trigger other prerecorded steps on other staiwells.

For the rest of the weekend i will analyze the stairwell and work on the patch.
