The publication gathers regional sounds from Sona village treating them as units in the creation of local mythologies. The juxtaposition of these sonic elements (soundscapes, human voices, animals, objects & tools) becomes a polyphony quoting Levi Strauss’ structural analysis of myth.
The sounds are mapped in the book through electrically conductive black stripes which are touch sensitive, triggering a specific sonic event when the audience interacts with it.
