Using only user-submitted YouTube videos as “instruments,” Darren Solomon from Science For Girls has put together an interesting little “collaborative music and spoken word project.” Contributors submit videos featuring sound in the key of B flat (or spoken words), and then the videos can be played in any order, simultaneously, with YouTube’s volume controls on each video. It’s basically a YouTube mixing board, but it makes for a pretty cool ambient piece and it’s a totally unique experience per listen. Check it out here.
Solomon is also involved in a similar project with Northern State University in South Dakota called marker/music that’s definitely worth checking out as well.
