Alaka'i 1777: reconstructing extinct birdsongs in immersive spatial audio

Alaka'i 1777 is an immersive sound installation that reconstructs the lost song culture of the Kauaʻi ʻōʻō, an extinct Hawaiian bird, by weaving together archival recordings with interacting artificial agents. Donations will be used to scale up the installation—bringing it to bigger venues and sharing the story of the Kauaʻi ʻōʻō with a larger and more diverse audience.
