street sounds

Everywhere I go I feel like robots are singing to me. Things make happy music–from the street lights to the subway doors, to the washer and the toilet.

Here I was waiting for the train. There are speakers that play fake bird sounds on a loop while you wait. It’s trippy. I hear them in my sleep.

For the visually impaired there is an audio cue for crossing large streets in Tokyo. Some sound like birds, some are little songs, some are beeps.
