A work-in-development, *What is the Sound of Peace?* attempts to answer this question through the voices of female British Army veterans. The work consists of two *Sonic Monuments*, one situated outside of the National Army Museum, London and the other nearby starting in Duke Of York Square and leading to the entrance to the Saatchi Gallery. Outside the Saatchi, the work is interactive and responds to the listener's position and movements, whilst at the National Army Museum, the piece is designed for static listening on the benches outside. *Created by* **Dr Joseph Young** (https://artofnoises.com). *Produced by* **O'Neill/Ross** (https://oneillross.co.uk) *Thanks for your support* **Prof Camille Baker**, Royal College of Art. *Funded by* 'Developing Your Creative Practice' grant from **Arts Council England** (The main image is of a pirate radio ship, The Voice of Peace, moored off the coast of Tel Aviv from 1973-93)
