Beekkant Square - Héli

1 sound

The position and architecture of the two residential towers causes reverberation and amplification of sounds in the empty space above the square. This can be thought of as a complex dynamic unity marked by continuous movement with the bouncing back and forth as multiplier of the sound’s movement without chopping it. Verbal sounds coming from conversations in the agore space are being amplified when interacting with the architecture of the square and buildings. A similar amplifying and reverberating effect occur with passing freight trains and helicopters in the sky as well as police sirens on the ground, exposing the housing complex' aural architecture.
