What the sounds of the internet look like

Earlier in the year, sound artist Matt Parker submitted some sounds from his project investigating the sounds of the internet, via the sounds of data centres around the world – his remix of Birmingham City University’s data centre was haunting and immersive. To accompany his project, Matt has now created a video to go along with the piece, as part of a large site-specific installation at the Birmingham Conservatoire – he’s shared the video with us so you can experience a visual interpretation of his sounds.

Matt will be taking his project to record more data centres on the road in the coming months, and will be continuing to collaborate with us so we can help to share some of his sounds through Cities and Memory.
