SoundscapeTheme

THEME:
“The world is never quiet, even its silence eternally resounds with the same notes, in vibrations which escape our ears. As for those that we perceive, they carry sounds to us, occasionally a chord, never a melody.” Albert Camus
“Sound--That stealeth ever on the ear of him
Who, musing, gazeth on the distance dim,
And sees the darkness coming as a cloud--
Is not its form--its voice--most palpable and loud?” Edgar Allan Poe
“The silence was part of the story I wanted to tell.” Joyce Maynard
“Music is the movement of sound to reach the soul for the education of its virtue”. Plato

when sound changed the world

In a world where old people have taken control of society, no young person is safe.

By using irritating high frequency sounds which only ‘Youths’ can here, the old have banished the young to the fringes of the cities.

Action needs to be taken.

The ‘Youths’ have begun to use this noise to their advantage, communicating without the old people’s knowledge.

By using this high frequency whistle the young can regain control.
