Adrien Kaeser’s Weather Thingy is a custom built sounds controller that modifies the sounds produced by musical instruments based on real-time climate settings. Weather Thingy is composed of two parts: a weather station on a tripod microphone and a custom built controller connected to a weather station. The station has climate sensors like a rain gauge, a wind vane, and a anemometer that assign various parameters received to audio effects. The main goal of Adrien’s work is to offer a new perspective to a replayability of a song. Since the same song with change based on the surrounding climate, it offers an unique experience each time the song is heard.
