No Need To Whisper
From Friday 21st April until Saturday 6th May 2023, we will be showing ‘No Need To Whisper’, a binaural sound piece to be experienced on headphones, uncovering the sounds and silences of Lancashire’s museums and art galleries. 🎧
Director Parvez Qadir, sound engineer/artist Jo Kennedy and producer Jodie Ratcliffe (Breaking Barriers) have been touring some of Lancashire’s libraries and museums to find out what they really sound like. Supported by a curatorial panel of young librarians and museum staff, Breaking Barriers have created an immersive soundscape evoking the actual sounds of books, objects, paintings, computers, buildings and people. 🏛
