Sonic Tides: When Noise Pollution Becomes Visible

Sonic Tides is a sonic memoir blending poetry and aircraft noise pollution into an immersive installation, giving visible form to an invisible crisis affecting 2.2 million residents near London Heathrow Airport.

Moving beyond conventional sound wave representations, Sonic Tides reimagines aircraft noise as powerful ocean waves through audio-reactive projections. This immersive installation translates a day in the life of a family living near Heathrow Airport into an audiovisual experience, where the intensity of aircraft noise manifests as increasingly turbulent audio-reactive digital tsunamis that surge across walls and floors.
