7eraff : UAE Craft SOUNDSCAPES

In today’s fast paced and heavily automated environment, we take a breath…a moment to appreciate craft, not just as the skill of making, but also as an art form.
7eraff provides a platform for technology and tradition to merge, and carry the stories of each craft forward into the future.

Experience the embedded meaning in each craft as you listen to a series of soundscapes to transport you to the region.

American University of Sharjah students recorded all of the audio in the field and produced these soundscapes as part of a course titled "MUM304 Media Systems and Publishing".
