I recall projects that did something like this. Besides museums and historic neighborhoods, one memorable application was at a graveyard. Reenactors read letters and diary entries written by the deceased. The closer you were to the writer's tombstone, the louder their audio. From far away all you heard was a combination of barely audible voices. I believe the relevant terms are "audio walks" or "phonoscapes".
