The StoryBox is an image processing program that preserves moments through sound. In a world full of visual snapshots of life, rarely are those moments simultaneously captured through music. The StoryBox software allows images throughout time to be captured and composed into a series of auditory experiences. 


Towns, cities, and landscapes are constantly evolving. With the threat of climate change transforming and destroying the earth's natural beauties, war destruction, and new development, an image alone can not preserve or capture the full experience of a place before it disappears. For this project, the StoryBox captures archived images of Palestine pre-colonization. As more and more land is annexed, it is important to create multiple different preserved representations of the beautiful landscape. The natural scenery and towns were then processed and programmed to create an auditory interpretation of the image. By analyzing the colors, depth, and outlined shapes of the images, the software was then able to assign notes and compose a sound.
