The Persistence of Sound//audio-visual installation

Originally commissioned as part of the Sampling Sounds of The Future project, The Persistence of Sound is an audio-visual installation consisting of three short films. Each focusses on different aspects of Coventry: Transport & Industry, People & Communities and Buildings & Environment.

The pieces are designed to be played alongside each other to create a sense of interaction. Soundtracks are generated from samples and field recordings collected from around Coventry with a theme to explore and predict the future sounds of the City. The project utilised a variety of vintage and modern equipment and methods, including sampling, tape loops, found sounds, field recordings, processing and a range of electronic instruments and effects.

Natsu are Rhiannon Bigham (Visual Sequence) & Ian Campbell (S-AMM), collaborative sound design artists based at Eastern Telephone Works, Coventry.
