The idea for this project came during my early days of migration when I left Iran. In a new place with no memories or sense of belonging, the most frequent sound I heard was the map guide helping me find my way. Often, I got lost in the city. To understand and emotionally connect with my surroundings, I started wandering, recording my voice and ambient sounds, and creating a map that captured my emotions and the environment’s sounds. I aimed to build artificial memories.
