"A wind chime that sounds as good on a calm day as it does a windy one.”

"Wikipedia is a silent depository of information, an endless library where no one even dares to cough even though books are being added, subtracted, and edited with fervor at every moment."

But it’s silent no more. Listen to Wikipedia, inspired by Listen to Bitcoin and created by Mahmoud Hashemi and Stephen LaPorte, transforms the worldwide editing process into a relaxed global orchestra. A celesta plays whenever an addition is made. A clavichord sounds whenever something is deleted. The higher the pitch, the smaller the edit.

Visualized Sounds of Wikipedia Edits

 And just like a wind chime, the tones play on a pentatonic scale, which allows any random order of notes (or edits) to sound equally pleasant. Meanwhile, the soundscape is supported by a bokeh-like visualization in which registered users (green), unregistered users (white), and even bots (purple) update Wikipedia’s pages.

 The top and only comment there says...

Unfortunately in reality this would sound like a bunch of elementary school kids blowing recorders, banging biscuit tins, and tunelessly squealing the latest pop song.
