Sound Logo

您聽說了嗎? 維基媒體有一個聲音徽標!

What a journey

More than a year ago, we embarked on a new journey: to find a sound logo for Wikimedia. Inspired by the Wikimedia movement's experience of visual logo contests and mandated by the Foundation's Board of Trustees, the Sound Logo team, together with Wikimedians, engaged with audio professionals and sound enthusiasts around the world, created an online collection of sounds, had on-wiki conversations, hosted community calls, organized workshops in sound editing and audio production, attended virtual and in-person community events, and created listening booths.

在2022 年 9 月至 10 月期間,來自 135 個國家/地區的 2,094 名參與者提交了 3,235 個聲音徽標作品。基於維基社群的好奇心,我們每週隨機分享一批提交的作品。對於「創意提示」的闡釋非常迷人——人群和鳥兒的聲音、翻頁聲、敲門聲、鼓聲、鐘聲、鑼聲、人聲、鼠標點擊的聲音,並在鍵盤上打字的聲音。

幸運的是,我們得到了幫助!!!一些社群成員自願幫忙篩選提交的作品,最後由維基媒體成員組成的選拔委員會MassiveMusic 網絡的音頻專業人士合作,向我們展示了 10 個可供投票的聲音徽標作品。

我們希望給決賽選手一個公平的機會,並鼓勵投票者聽取所有 10 位入選的作品,以根據他們的喜好對這些作品進行排序。我們選擇了以前在維基媒體視覺徽標競賽中使用的一種強而有力的方法來確定獲勝的聲音作品。 76.7% 的投票者在維基共享資源上註冊超過一年,共投出2065 票 。 現在我們正式地選出了獲勝的聲音作品。

您可以隨時查看比賽信息。 我們同時決定保留聲音作品庫,並將更多聲音徽標分享到維基共享資源。請聆聽聲音徽標作品。

The winning sound

Thaddeus Osborne is from Norfolk, Virginia, USA; nuclear engineer by day and music producer at heart. He conceptualized our sound logo based on what knowledge consumption and seeking information mean to him: leafing through books, the crescendo of wanting more, and that unquenchable thirst for learning.

謝謝!

為音頻設備準備維基媒體的內容並以符合我們的價值觀和實踐的方式進行不是一件容易的事情。我們非常感謝志願者篩選團隊、評選委員會、充滿活力的社群聯絡員團隊——最重要的是,感謝您!我們感謝你們中的許多人,他們參與了維基上的對話、線上或實體的對話,聆聽、分享、投票,或以任何其他方式參與,幫助我們取得今天的成就——為維基媒體項目提供一個完美的標誌。謝謝你們!

 

What is the sound of all human knowledge?

These days, people can ask computers and smart devices questions with their voices and major search engines often search Wikimedia projects to answer them. Without sound logo as a means to identify Wikimedia content, the public does not always know that this knowledge comes from Wikimedia, a trusted source for verifiable information. In tune with a legacy of visual logo contests and with exciting new parameters regarding sound logos and audio production, the Wikimedia Foundation is organizing a global contest for a sound logo for Wikimedia, and we'd love to hear from you.

We have curated themes and sounds in the sound lab for you to experiment with and get inspired. Happy listening.

If you want to learn more about sound logos, need help with your submission, or if you have a great idea for one, but don't know how to capture it, join this conversation with our technical partner MassiveMusic on September 29, 15:00-16:00 UTC. Sign up directly on Zoom or below using your Wikimedia username and we will send you the call link using the "Email this User" feature. Please share your questions in advance so we can best adapt the workshop for you.

Masterclass led and recorded by MassiveMusic on how to create a sound logo for the Wikimedia The Sound of All Human Knowledge contest.

Community conversations

Phase 2 of the Wikimedia sound logo contest involved open community conversations on the contest proposal (you can view slides of which). Two meetings were held, on May 27 and another on June 2. You can see the May 27 video recording. A presentation involved dissecting the TED sound logo, showing a few basics of how to use Audacity audio software and some basics of audio recording, a synopsis of the contest proposal and how it has developed and question and answers.

Strategic Wikimedia Affiliates Network - Presentation and Q&A, 31 10月 2021 (both meetings) Kelsi from the sound logo team connected with approximately 30 volunteers from across the movement at the first October 2021 SWAN meetings. The idea of a sound logo was received with general positivity, and including asked questions about trademarking, use by volunteers, and whether the sound logo could contain words. Volunteers also demonstrated excitement for the upcoming sound logo contest by sharing logo ideas in the side chat.

At the second SWAN meeting held on October 31 18:30 UTC the Brand Studio team (represented by Mathoto, Zack and Samir) connected with approximately 40 volunteers. The Brand Studio team thanked nominated community advisors who helped guide the next steps for brand work which includes plans to expand flexible naming options, a single community pilot, update the existing brand guidelines portal on meta and the sound logo exploration. Attendees celebrated the positive impact the color letter had on the movement and were generally pleased to see brand projects being initiated to support the movement again on a surer basis. There was also positive interest and helpful suggestions for the sound logo project particularly around it requiring clear usage guidelines.

See the event link and notes.
