horror vacui

Project Type

Sound

Elements

Field Recording
Sound Art

Date

June 2025

horror vacui was conceived as an emotional response to the often overwhelming barrage of sonic intrusions I felt whilst visiting Europe in the summer of 2024.

Field recordings were sliced, diced, mangled and rearranged. The everyday background drones and hiss of capitalist activity are brought to the fore and given a new emphasis. They reveal how we are smothered in sounds we cannot control.
