We collected video clips of landscapes from Incheon(KR), Kassel(DE), and Münster(DE). Each landscape image was analyzed by a deep learning algorithm. Then, we obtain six images and sounds that are most relevant to the selected image. Finally, we reconstructed the A.I. Soundscape by mapping the extracted sounds.

We surveyed 30 people and about 30% of audiences responded that artificial soundscape is more realistic than original soundscape. So how can we recognize what is real and fiction? Is it possible to distinguish?
