Dånk! member Richard is showing a sound installation at the Megapolis festival in Helsinki on 27th September

Megapolis is a festival of global urbanites. The theme of the third Megapolis is Happy Cities.

The installation is called Sound of the City and is done by Aura Neuvonen and Richard Widerberg

With the Sound of the City installation everyone can experiment what the city would sound like if there were less cars, more people or if the cocoon sang in the city like in the countryside. Soundscape affects our health, mood and experience of the place. Sounds also make the city homely and close, or bleak and alien. The Sound of the City installation is made by media artist Richard Widerberg and sound designer Aura Neuvonen.
