[comp][rando] Immersive Fun Ambient Audio Thing
[I know it's stupid! You're stupid!]
Little MCU hobby parts are cheap, plentiful and performant.
Maybe for fun... go out in the woods somewhere with a handful that have the following specs:
- Small, cheap, weatherproof, many-month batteries
- High fidelity single channel audio recording on each
- Very accurate clocks that timestamp audio
Put them up atop trees in a circle; maybe a 10m circle with a total of 20 devices. They should all be equidistant and the same hight: They should form an evenly-spaced circle (all the same hight).
Let them record for a while. Line up all the audio using the timestamps.
Any two opposing mics can be considered a stereo pair.
You might even use head tracking stuff so that as you turn your head, the mics fade from one to the next, simulating "ears" that rotate along with a gigantic (10m) head.
Profit.
