on now at Hackney’s Space Studios, Sound Escapes comprises a number of science-leaning sonic art installations. passing a series of abstracts from the Positive Soundscapes Project, you come across Nikolaus Gansterer’s ‘The Eden Experiment’ – an astoundingly in-depth look at how plants are affected by either classical music or Norwegian Black Metal. next, you can put a series of olde fashioned ‘Listening Glasses’ to your ear while contemplating Dan Holdsworth’s image of a soundless anechoic chamber; rearrange street sounds; and marvel at Simon Elvins’ all-white ‘Silent London’ etching of the city’s noise map. all in all, worth a look listen
