Playsound.space Demo

Ariane Stolfi, Alessia Milo, Miguel Ceriani and Mathieu Barthet

Playsound.space is a web-based tool to search for and play Creative Commons licensed-sounds which can be applied to free improvisation, experimental music production and soundscape composition. It provides a fast access to about 400k non-musical and musical sounds provided by Freesound, and allows users to play/loop single or multiple sounds retrieved through text based search. Sound discovery is facilitated by use of semantic searches and sound visual representations (spectrograms). For this demo we will present the current functionalities together with a work-in-progress chat system, allowing users to exchange messages while playing.
