Sound is all around us, from the surf pounding on rocks to the roar of a Grand Final crowd, but what about a sound for all human knowledge.

The Wikimedia movement is searching for a sound logo that will identify content from all of their projects, like Wikipedia, when visual logos are not an option, for example, when virtual voice assistants answer queries.

Through an open contest, they are inviting the world to create The Sound of All Human Knowledge. 

This sound will help communicate what the Wikimedia movement stands for trustworthy, reliable, open, and accessible knowledge for all.

Submissions for the sound logo contest will be accepted until 10th of October 2022 by 23:59 UTC, the winner to receive $2,500 USD and a trip to a recording studio to produce the final sound logo.

Voting for Wikimedia’s new sound logo starts on the 29th of November 2022 and goes until the 19th of December.
