Silence when it comes to communication, is that possible? In a society driven by speed, pressure and noise, the value of silence seems to increase. A huge source of energy, inspiration and focus is to be found in it. «Sounds of Silence» at the Museum of Communication invites to explore this topic within an interactive audio landscape.

‹Anti-exhibition› without exhibit, listening to silence – equipped with headphones, drifting between sound clouds, the visitors embark on an intuitive journey through a dreamlike spatial experience. The focus is aural and the visual impulses are consistently reduced to geometric traces, emptiness and still moving images in space.
