Noise pod : the need for urban noise

University essay from Konstfack

Author: Christoph Gisel; [2010]

Keywords: Möbeldesign; ljud;

Abstract: This project is about the thought that urban noise is more needed than we may think. A lot of people can be really disturbed and upset about a noisy environment surrounding them. I want to show with this noise pod, a space where you can sit/lay while listening to everyday urban noise compositions, that noise can be really relaxing and enjoyable. Relaxation does not only come from the right choice of noise at the right time it also depends on the environment that you enjoy the soundscape in. This pod - a small capsule of space - is a place to sit by yourself, choose a noise composition and listen to it reflectivity. Compleatly insulated from the surrounding noise world, you will be able to enjoy the noise wich is supported with an interactive light installation. Escape from the noise you are disturbed by, through listening to the noise you like.
