When I opened 'Project Audio for GitHub', the sounds of bells and strings echoed immediately. The circles that appear on the screen indicate the events that occurred on GitHub, and there are as many sounds as there are circles.

Even though I'm watching events happening across GitHub, I expected the timing of the sounds to be a little more sporadic, but it's surprising that it sounds like a song with a musical score.

Then, although the frequency of sounding was significantly reduced compared to the case of 'github', at the time of article creation, sound was sounded more than 10 times in 10 minutes, and each time it was developed somewhere in the world at this moment. I realized that people are working on COVID-19 related projects.
