Chris, I have 35 different soundscapes recorded world-wide -- marine  
and terrestrial -- completed and ready-to-install in any size public  
space. The programs are configured to play in surround and/or 3-D non- 
redundantly (same context and content but mixed differently with each  
iteration), monitors output levels based on crowd density, IDs the  
program's featured critters in real time as they are heard, all  
programs are interactive, and require no maintenance. Contact me off- 
line for more information.
