Immersive Forest Soundscapes - Sound in motion

Giant Insect World has teamed up with sound artist, Neil Spencer Bruce to evoke the sounds of the forest as part of the 'Inside the wood ant nest' experience

Wood ants ( Formica Lugubris) are very quiet. Even if you go right next to their nest, you will still only hear the forest around you.

Make the forest come alive by playing sounds of the birds and insects who keep the wood ants company.

You are the sound. You are the motion. You are the composition.

This is a fun and playful sound adventure where you help make the soundscape and experience immersive audio! As you move, dance, jump, wave, and play, the soundscape around you changes and grow, turning everyone into part of a giant living orchestra. Every movement makes something new happen — no two experiences are ever the same!

Sound in Motion is all about listening, exploring, creating, and having fun together. Come and see what happens when sound, movement, imagination, and people all connect.

Choose your insect below and press PLAY on your device, everything else is optional.
