MTA.me Conductor has turned Massimo Vignelli's 1972 New York tube map into a real-time string instrument. The map visualizes inwards real-time trains moving on the MTA tube network as well as plays a banker's complaint every fourth dimension a tube educate crosses the rail of some other train.
Every infinitesimal the application checks for novel trains launched from their cease stations. The trains are thence animated along the tube trouble amongst their speed laid past times the MTA schedule. When ane educate crosses the rail of some other educate a unmarried banker's complaint is played.
Fire-up the map as well as yous tin flame simply sit down dorsum as well as nous to a New York tube symphony beingness composed as well as played inwards real-time. You tin flame fifty-fifty bring together inwards the composition past times plucking the strings of the trains of the New York subway.
If the New York tube tin flame hold upwards a stringed musical instrument I encounter no argue why the map of Ohio can't hold upwards a piano. Ohio has 88 counties, a pianoforte has 88 keys, thence obviously Ohio is a Piano!
Well, it is on this amazing Google Map. Cartogrammar has mapped each county of Ohio to a item pianoforte primal depending on diverse information attributes. This agency that yous tin flame play Ohio on this Google Map simply every bit yous would play a piano, except hither yous press the counties rather than tinkle the ivories.
The map has 'The Entertainer' already programmed in, thence if yous never learnt to play the Ohiophone yous tin flame simply press play as well as sit down dorsum as well as listen. Alternatively, if yous guide keep ever wondered what Google Driving Directions would audio similar if each county yous passed through played a dissimilar banker's complaint (and come upwards on who hasn't ever wondered that), yous tin flame choose a road from whatever county to whatever other county as well as nous to the road beingness played live.
If the New York tube tin flame hold upwards a stringed musical instrument as well as Ohio tin flame hold upwards a pianoforte thence Aberdeen tin flame hold upwards an orchestra! Marker / Music lets yous mix your ain music past times clicking on dissimilar locations as well as playing the music recorded there. You tin flame combine whatever of the recordings to practise your ain unique mix direct from the map.

Twelve of the videos guide keep been added to this Google Map. If yous opened upwards up the videos yous tin flame play as well as mix the sounds beingness played inwards each video. You tin flame fifty-fifty adapt the book of each video / instrument.
You mightiness human face that the upshot of opening dissimilar videos as well as mixing dissimilar instruments would hold upwards a cacophony of audio but I've played amongst this for a piece as well as each & every mix resulted inwards a serene as well as mellow musical composition.
If the New York tube is a stringed instrument, Ohio is a pianoforte as well as Aberdeen an orchestra thence Google Maps tin flame hold upwards a record.
Rock Around the World is a Google Map shaped to human face similar a record. Click on the map as well as the tape spins roughly as well as plays Rock Around the Clock.
