World Without Sound

By Jose Eros Salazar

Project Description

World Without Sound is an installation which converts audible sound to a visual representation of sound. By using technology like Arduino, noise canceling headphones, and LED panels, the installation emulates what it would be like with hearing impairments. The goal of using LED lights to display a visual representation is to have a stronger impact on the participant to show them just how much sound they are missing. The aim of the project is to have participants and viewers realize and walk away knowing how important sound is in their lives and experiences with media.
