Silence War

CONCEPT

As hearing is a primary warning sense, sound affects us physiologically, emotionally and psychologically in very powerful ways. Especially sounds linked to violence and danger, such as the sounds of war, can lead to adrenaline and cortisol spikes. Given the power of sound, a visceral way to make people understand the impact of war on an individual level is to place them in the middle of an auditory experience that will make them want to silence war and bring back peace.

  • When you have finished reading this line, someone in a war zone will have died from a bullet, rocket, or bomb. The invasion of Ukraine and the current genocide in Palestine are a tragic reminder that all wars are an affront to life, dignity and integrity.

    The urgency is real when it comes to bringing back peace in all active war zones. Pressure needs to be applied from all sides to ensure that wars end and civilian lives are protected.
