online resource
posted on 2024-05-31, 09:56 authored by Marcus Willcocks

A collaboration with the London Borough of Council, sound artist Bill Fontana and the Wellcome Trust to create an installation that aimed to raise awareness of the impact of vehicle traffic on the health and wellbeing of residents, visitors and the wider environment. Bill Fontana’s work of (live) sounds of waves crashing ashore on the Dorset coast replaced the sound of road traffic on the Euston Road, linking the issues of traffic pollution, local health, rising sea levels and global warming.
