“Overwhelming and extraordinary”
The Times
A large scale public sound installation.
105+dB, the sound level at which individual voices are lost in a crowd, is a sonic artwork about identity, place and participation, using the noise of crowds to question what it means to belong as an individual and as a mass by capturing the 3D sound of crowds and recreating their unique sonic architecture in public spaces.
