ABSTRACT
Moozak.Urbana is a Flash-interactive Project based in Jorge Luis Borges' text "A Biblioteca de Babel" and R. Murray Schaffer's book "A Afinação do Mundo". Using the concepts of an infinite emergent system - a City or Urban Soundscape - the Project uses an interactive and non-linear navigation, trying to reach all the body navigation possibilities: hands, eyes, ears, senses, mind. Once in the Project, the navigator faces the construction and deconstruction of a Soundscape through Graphic Signs and Unfolds, bringing to the front line Sounds that are not perceived by the Urban Inhabitant - so-called Sacred Sounds - and other kinds of sounds that creates this Soundscape. Each navigator, when mouse-sliding the Project, creates his own "map" and a whole different and infinite Soundmass, because some sounds are being added and subtracted from the Soundscape, renewing all the time.
