Madrid birds - Sound Installation


Madrid Sound Instillation 


I got to visit a sound instillation situated in a Victorian Orangery in the botanical gardens of Madrid. The structure was light and open when I visited, speakers were set up along the beams, from each one a different bird song played creating the sensation you were looking into the past and standing in the present simultaneously. This reminded my of a passage I read describing sound as a ghost with the power to bring back memory's and even summon the dead through frequency. This exhibition filled me with wonderment, and I would like to return again to soak in the location in more depth.
