Anthesizer
Anthesizer, 'Ant' + 'Synthesizer', is a tool that turns the complex social behaviors of ant colonies into mesmerizing soundscapes in real time.

To capture the audio signals generated by the ants, contact microphones have been installed within each nest. These signals are then amplified through circuitry and synthesized into an interesting soundscape using the Max MSP in real time. The resulting audio provides a unique insight into the ants' intricate logistics system and offers a new way to view and understand both ant and human societies.
