No Need to Whisper
About the project
The sounds and silences of Lancashire libraries and museums.
What comes to mind when you think about libraries and museums?
Do you think of quiet, contemplative spaces? Director Parvez Qadir and Sound Engineer Jo Kennedy (Breaking Barriers) have been touring some of Lancashire’s libraries and museums to discover what they really sound like.
Supported by a curatorial panel of young librarians and museum staff, Breaking Barriers have created an immersive soundscape evoking the actual sounds of books, objects, paintings, computers and buildings. It celebrates the common ground that connects people.
