Hi!

I created the website https://voicedot.app/ a non-profit, more of a social art project.

People come in and leave voice messages on a 3D globe, linked to their geolocation.

Click on a dot and you hear someone's voice. They speak in different languages ​​and about different things.

If you don't know the language, there's a button to translate into English. There aren't many dots yet, but there are already Esperanto, German, Ukrainian, Arabic, Thai and Icelandic: the recording came from the Þrídrangaviti lighthouse, one of the most inaccessible places on Earth.

I also hid an Easter egg in outer space, outside the solar system. It contains a recording in the most common languages ​​on Earth (Voyager-1).

You can also record a voice point yourself—with the option to delete it later if you change your mind.

If you're a native speaker of a rare language and the AI ​​transcribes it incorrectly, let me know, and I'll correct it.
