Geo-Localised Audio

Location-based audio installations for cities, culture, and brands.

 

Geo-localized audio formats transform real places into narrative experience spaces.

​

Audio content is precisely tied to specific locations and is automatically played via an app as soon as visitors enter the relevant area. This creates individual, immersive audio experiences that unfold while walking — without fixed start times, stages, or group guidance.

​

We develop these installations fully custom-made and implement them as temporary or permanent formats in public space.

What is geo-localized audio?

In geo-localized audio formats, individual audio tracks — stories, sound design, music, or voices — are tied to specific physical locations.
As soon as users enter the defined area with their smartphone, the corresponding content is automatically played.

Participants move freely through the space and experience a story that unfolds step by step — location-specific, individual, and at their own pace.

​

Design & possibilities

The content and dramaturgy are developed specifically for each location. Possible elements include:

• Historical or documentary content (e.g. city history, anniversaries, memorial sites)

• Fictional narratives with imagined characters and scenarios

• Brand or corporate storytelling for site-based, campus, or event experiences

• Sound design and music to enhance atmosphere and emotion

• Interactive elements such as hidden sounds, playful tasks, or collection mechanics

The installation can follow a linear structure or allow multiple paths and perspectives.

​

Fields of application

Geo-localized audio formats are particularly suitable for:

• Cities & municipalities (city festivals, anniversaries, cultural programs)

• Tourism and cultural institutions (permanent audio offerings in public space)

• Museums and outdoor exhibitions

• Festivals and cultural events

• Companies and organizations seeking to make places, history, or values tangible

Content can be implemented in multiple languages, enabling low-barrier access for diverse audiences.
