This blog - stockholm by waves - is closed. It was an experiment from the outset and the blog only managed to capture the interest of a few listeners. As Blogger didn't support sound, I chose to combine it with an underlying dedicated service for hosting the sounds. This service, Odeo, turned out to be unreliable and we're now left with a sound blog where the embedded sounds cannot be replayed!
I still believe that brief clips of the local sound scape is a great way to share the experience of a particular city. One day the time may come to revisit this format. Until then, thanks for your interest in stockholm by waves. What's left of the blog will remain online for a while and your feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks,

stockholm by waves
First pixels, then plenty… enter waves!
stockholm by waves is about sound. The sound of Stockholm, to be precise.
We have been strolling the city, producing photos with text. Since the beginning in October 2005 we’ve published roughly 800 pictures on our photo blogs, pixels and plenty. And not just images but also accompanying captions, links to other stuff near and far with comments from around the globe. Since we’re fortunate to be an entire quartet (mind you, with an occasional guest!) we like to think that we provide some diversity in the objects we cover and in how we express ourselves. Fear not, this won’t change!
However, we’re tempted to try adding yet another dimension to your experience of Stockholm by letting you listen to the city. Nice and comforting sounds, strange and inexplicable stuff or maybe pure noise such as road traffic. All this is still very much tentative and whether or not this idea leads anywhere depends a lot on your input. So please let us know what you think. Would you be interested in listening? To what? And how? A podcast?
stockholm by waves is an experiment. So hang on tight, feel free to add your feedback and let’s see… sorry… let’s hear what happens!
