Can you imagine what a world without natural sounds such as birdsong might be like? 

The continuity of noise pollution these days is affecting areas that have never experienced this level before…what effects could this be having on our wildlife? Lucy Allinson’s installation of plants and field recordings throughout multiple spaces at Platform Arts aims to provoke thought and discussion around the impact of human activity on soundscapes.

  • Lucy Allinson is a Geelong-based multidisciplinary artist working across sound, installation, painting, sculpture and photography. Her practice in acoustic ecology explores concepts of listening, capturing and composing to enable viewers to experience the different levels of human-machinery noise and the impacts of this on the acoustic ecology of our natural soundscapes. She is currently researching natural landscapes around Victoria to see how far one might have to travel to experience pure, natural soundscapes without the interference of human noise.
