Chinatown Beats — Asian Arts Initiative

Rachel Ishikawa

Over the course of my residency I have been collecting sounds myself, with the students of Asian Arts Initiative’s Youth Arts Workshop, and with other volunteers of the project. With this archive of sounds and the help of two amazing programmers, Ada Adhiyatma and Nicholas Anselmini, I am launching the Chinatown Beats Audio Sequencer, which is an online platform that allows participants to create beats using everyday sounds recorded by stakeholders of the Chinatown North community. This platform allows participants to playfully explore and relate to the neighborhood through music.
