PandorBird: Identifying the Types of Music That May Be Favored by Our Avian Co-Inhabitants

PandorBird: Identifying the Types of Music That May Be Favored by Our Avian Co-Inhabitants, by Elizabeth Demaray in collaboration with Ahmed Elgammal, is an interactive outdoor installation that uses computer vision and interactive software to track and then play the music choices made by wild song- birds. This mobile learning system uses a novel algorithm for species identification, plays avian-favored human music, and builds a database of the musical compositions preferred by local feeder birds.
Visible from the benches at Pier 6, PandoraBird will be running on Swale each Monday from 10:00am to 1:00pm. Please come by and see the types of human music favored by our avian co-inhabitants.
