What happens when culture is threatened, targeted or deliberately annihilated? This is the question visitors at IWM London will be invited to consider as the museum explores the impact of acts of war against what defines who we are – our culture. The Culture Under Attack season (5 July 2019 – 5 January 2020) will comprise of three free exhibitions and a series of live events.
Culture Under Attack: A Sonic Assault (2019)
Sound in the Forefront: The sound design for "Culture Under Attack" takes center stage, creating a bold and disruptive experience that aligns with the exhibition's powerful theme.
Big Impact Audio: This "in your face" approach delivers the impactful soundscape envisioned by the creative director.
Distortion for Destruction: Scenes depicting buildings tearing apart are layered with subtle distortion, adding edge and a sense of aggression to these moments of cultural annihilation.
Granular Fury: Granular processing techniques were used to create unique sounds for the destruction of smaller particles, further emphasizing the impact and texture of the destruction.
A Fun (Yet Powerful) Project: Despite the serious subject matter, the sound design team took a creative and engaging approach, resulting in a powerful soundscape that leaves a lasting impression.
