Social Score

Social Score is the first interactive and location-based listening experience that can be played directly in the browser. It negotiates the potential introduction of a social scoring system in Germany.

Play it at socialscore.eu (duration ~25 Minutes).

The listeners experience the advantages and disadvantages of such a system during a free walk with the fictitious AI « AVA ». The audio experience is composed live and individually by analysing GPS position data, comparing them with a database of location/object data and using a synthetic voice.

Social Score was funded by MIZ Babelsberg (2019) and is based on the « Dynamic Audio » concept we developed at sansho. It's an approach for data-controlled audio output based on realtime metadata from the listener: such as GPS coordinates, statistics or personalised data sets.
