For those in London, you have a chance to dial and listen to sounds on sky at 7.00pm on May 4th 2004. Sky Ear, hosted by the National Maritime Museum, is a one-night event where 1000 ballons are released into the air to float over the Greenwich. Each time a call is made, the ballons changes its colours. Dialers get to listen to the actual sounds up high. This event is set to coincide with the lunar eclipse!
The cloud will be made of one thousand large helium balloons each responding to the electromagnetic environment (created by distant storms, mobile phones, police and ambulance radios, television broadcasts, etc.) with coloured blue, red and yellow lights.
The balloons will be enclosed in a carbon fibre and net structure 25m in diameter tethered to the ground by 6 cables and held aloft at a height of 60m where it will remain for several hours.
