Sound selections included those from nature and the built environment. Each durational recording was looped on digital audio players played through loudspeakers . The audio was placed within distinct areas of the Atlas Building, including the entrace stairwell, room under construction, and a distant hallway. Each sound commanded the space it occupied and gave passers-through a reason to pause and consider these familiar cues, now out of context. Seating for two was provided at each location. |
