Office for Students (OfS) Student Knowledge Exchange Project and Santander Internships recognised in the Digital Culture Awards
Two Keele students have been recognised in the Digital Culture Awards for their Sounds of the Forest project.
Wild Rumpus CIC worked with Keele students Joash Abejide, via the OfS Student Knowledge Exchange Project and Rebekah Stevenson, via the Santander internship scheme to build digital capacities for their Sounds of The Forest project. The project collected the sounds of woodlands and forests from all around the world, creating a growing sound map - offering meditation for many and an inspiration for art and music for others.
