Bot #9 — FoundSounds

Katie Cerar
Boltmade’s 31 Days of Bots in May
2 min readMay 9, 2016

Today’s bot is brought to you by one of the amazing artists who works here at Boltmade. David Jensenius is the artistic genius behind FoundSounds, a collaborative art project disguised as a social network.

Chat with FoundSounds to receive a recent or random sound from one of his many contributors or learn more about the FoundSounds project.

Chat with FoundSounds on Kik with userame “found_sounds” or find it on the Kik Bot Shop: http://bots.kik.com/#/found_sounds

From the most recent FoundSounds press release:

The app allows users to record and share sounds they find intriguing, surprising, or even disruptive. Recordings are geotagged, and users are able to browse through sounds by scrolling through a timeline or exploring a map. Additional avenues of exploration include the ability to construct a geographically-specific sound collage or to go for a sound walk, taking in nearby sounds as one passes them.

Mind expanding!
