Silence

“Silence” was a series of published works that were produced in conjunction with a project that explored how the “attention econonmy” -the personal technology that inundates our daily reality - rob us of ‘Silence’. Defined in this project as: the abscence of intentional distraction. To put it shortly, 'Silence' is the abilty to be bored, to be present with the world and with ourselves.

The series consisted of three short written works, a 'User's Guide to Silence', a website that hosted an online radio of 'Silences' frpm around the world, and a physical audio sampler turned the capturing of everyday noise into an engaging, tactile experience.

The project orginated as a series of zines that explored the intentional pursuit of Silence, the culmination of which is this was the "User's Guide to [ Silence ]". Below are some of my favourite pages from both the short zines and the 'User's Guide'.
