Project Description::

7 Urban Silences

Silence is pretty much a non-existent treat in tightly packed urban surroundings and even in this silence one can hear the echo of receding sirens and city sounds. 7 Urban Silences provides the spectator with a chance to experiment with the relative silences of a urban setting by mixing together soundscapes from different cities to create a global urban silence for themselves.
Various artists and musicians have recorded the silences of seven different cities, bringing these together in the installation. Cities and artists are:

Kaija Papu: Dakar, Senegal
Cedric Anglaret: Paris, France
Jari haanperä: Copenhagen, Denmark
Mikko Seppälä: Helsinki, Finland
Eric Van Hove: Bejing, China
Lin Culbertson: New York, U.S.A.
Melanie Chilianis, Melbourne, Australia
