Description:  The sound of war versus the sound of peace


Idea:  

Record the sounds of war, and peace (nature maybe, perhaps a bustling town), then give a realistic audio depiction of what it is like to be in a room, particularly in a house, in a place that is experiencing the war, peace.

Two rooms- one representing war, the other peace.

Sounds- Tanks, gun shots, bombs; maybe some human suffering. (1)


Future Additions(s):  

The sound of a high-traffic, high-noise residency versus the sound of a residence surrounded by nature.  A graspable presentation of the effect of noise in our daily lives. (2)


Additional Comment(s):

1.  A better understanding of war for societies that do not experience war.

2.  A clearer appreciation of noise in our everyday lives.
