Listen to Brooklyn
As the trains rumble through Brooklyn, sensors in each station send data to the cloud, letting the system know that a train has arrived or departed. The sensors also send seismic “texture” data that is unique to each train and each station.
As the trains move throughout Brooklyn, the data flows in. The system’s algorithm examines the incoming data and triggers small pieces of pre-recorded music sent in by Brooklyn artists.
