LEARN MORE ABOUT HUMAN INTERACTIONS

New York City is complex and dynamic, there are layers upon layers of infrastructure interwoven into the broader ecosystem. Our sounds exist not only on the surface but also underground, underwater, and even inside trees and plants. The sounds of planes, subways, and ferries can be heard thundering in the soil, waters, and even inside our trees. Sound pollution and its impact on life forms is a new area of study and exploration.

Let's be a force for good and treat our environment with care and respect for its well-being is fundamentally intertwined with our own future.
