Friday the 11^th October, we conducted a test-run of Ekkomaten in Møllevangen - a local neighborhood in Aarhus. Throughout a year we have asked people to collect sounds from their neighborhood with the aim to build up a sound archive that reflect their auditory understanding of the place in which they live: sounds they like, dislike, symbolic sounds, everyday sounds, interviews (voices of the neighborhood) ambiences etc. With Ekkomaten as the interface to the archivepeople could listen to the sounds organized in accordance to the direction from which they originated, e.g. if pointing Ekkomaten towards the youth–club, the sounds recorded by the children in the club could be heard.
