Ambient Addition is a Walkman with binaural microphones. A tiny  
Digital Signal Processing (DSP) chip analyzes the microphone's sound  
and superimposes a layer of harmony and rhythm on top of the  
listener's world. In the new context, some surprising behaviors take  
place. Listeners tend to play with objects around them, sing to  
themselves, and wander toward tempting sound sources. With Ambient  
Addition, I'm hoping to make people think twice about the sounds they  
initiate as well as loosen up some inhibitions.
