The City of Sound

Right. I have been thinking about the summer project a lot in these heated times.
With the city as the theme, I wanted to incorporate sound. But to transform sound into image, I referenced Michel Gagne's Sensology and Norman McLaren's Begone Dull Care (1949). Even the EKG Graphs in hospitals:

All these, I thought, worked well with the elements of a city. I then thought of fusing the two. I thought that I would make a city play the music. The buildings would be the equalizers, the passing trains would be the the EKG graphs. The stars could be the notes on sheet music. Something to that degree.
Let me know what you think.
