About

How Séance Works

Hear a place the way history felt. We reconstruct the soundscape of any place and year by combining archival research with AI audio generation.

The Process

I

Ground in Evidence

We search through historical records, memoirs, and period documentation to understand what the location sounded like in your chosen year. Each reconstruction is evidence-backed.

II

Compose the Soundscape

Using ElevenLabs audio AI, we create an immersive three-layer reconstruction: ambient atmosphere, environmental texture, and human/mechanical events.

III

Archive for Later

Your reconstruction is preserved. Revisit anytime — identical queries load from the archive instantly instead of regenerating.

Why It Matters

Soundscapes shape our memories of place. By reconstructing historical audio environments, we gain a new way to connect with the past — hearing history, not just reading it.
