During my second year of visual communication design studies at Aalto University, I became captivated by audio projects. These works became integral parts of larger projects, where spatial storytelling played a central role. Beyond visual elements, I found audio essential, because it adds a new dimension to the space and introduces subtle details that enrich the overall experience. The sounds themselves are experimental, existing in the liminal space between sound art and music. I also aimed for them to be open to interpretation, allowing each listener to pick out fragments that resonate personally and create their own connections.
This piece was created during Aalto University's Experiment 2 course in the spring of 2025. As our final project, we designed a projection for a dining table, and this piece served as the soundtrack for the first setting. The soundtrack reflects the feeling of beginning an evening amidst conversations and contemplation. The atmosphere builds, and participants search for their place within the group. Additionally, the track includes the perspective of an observer spending their own time, positioned outside the dinner party. Can you find yourself in both roles? The piece is visualized to evoke the mood that I experienced while creating it. It was made by combining and editing pre-existing audio clips from Pixabay.
This piece was created during Aalto University’s Experiment 2 course in the spring of 2025. For our final project, we designed a projection for a dining table, and this track was the second soundtrack for the first setting. It was made for my friend Elle’s table, with a theme of boldness and a party in full swing. I wanted the piece to reflect Elle’s optimistic yet surprising personality. The atmosphere conveys the joy of creating and being, as well as the richness of events. In the visualization, retro elements, intensity, and playfulness were particularly important.

This piece was created during Aalto University’s Experimental Project course in the spring of 2025. It was designed to be played alongside a group-created garden party table setting. The piece would have been especially needed if it had rained and we had to present our work indoors. I wanted to capture the sound of friends gathering outside to celebrate spring on a calm, sunny day. In the project, it was important to consider which sound effects and combinations could evoke the feeling of an outdoor space in audio.
