SPRING IS CLOSE at hand  (the picture serves to remind you that summer is quite lovely in Edmonton). And before Churchill Square gets busy, I am sampling the sound of the Friendship Tower carillon in late March. The traffic is quite prominent — the street is not closed to cars and trucks (as it is during festival events).

The 3D soundscape puts you under one of the canopies along the southeast corner of the Square. Use headphones for best result.

Tell me what you think of the audio imaging. Do the chimes bouncing off nearby buildings and the ceiling of the canopy sound pleasing to your ear?
