This insulation at the article talks about involving the Millennium Tower is incredibly interesting and powerful. I love when artists create some thing that not only has a message but brings the viewer quite literally into the message. The best kind of installations in my opinion has a way of involving that you were as well and making them an integral part of the installation. It's so interesting how this group of artist has taken a pre-existing anxiety amongst many people and elevated it to get their point across, and in such a seemingly simple way, with sound. Some of my favorite installations also include sound, because I think it's such a powerful sense. I just did a News comment for an article on how music affects us, both psychologically and physiologically. This artwork proves that it isn't only music that has this effect, but it could be any sound with the right surroundings.
