#080: The Approaching Silence

A sound and film installation taking up a full room in a gallery.  The sound of birdsong can be heard and a single 360 degree stationary shot of the corresponding forest or wood can be seen projected onto the walls of the gallery.  Each soundscape and film lasts 60 seconds but the birdsong slowly starts to fade after thirty seconds leaving the gallery silent for ten seconds while the film plays on before suddenly switching to another scene and soundscape.  

After Butler, S. and Morisson, C. (2021) We reconstructed birdsong soundscapes from over 200,000 places: and they’re getting quieter.
