THE BACKYARD THEREMIN
(or POV: You're a Bird)

The Backyard Theremin is an interactive soundscape instrument made by Anna Chaurize for the Digital Musical Instrument Design Class at Northwestern University. It allows the user to immerse themselves in a diorama filled with birds and natural elements. The user selects which sonic location they would like to occupy and can then become a bird themselves and sing along using an attached theremin-esque device that simulates birdsong.
