In the second of the I, Science radio package series, I take a look at the “Sounds of the Science Museum”.
Museums are traditionally sight- and touch-based, but they use a lot of sound too – interactives, videos, audio content on gallery, and even just the constant sound of busy visitors add to the overall soundscape.
I wanted to take a closer look at this often-hidden medium, and ask whether sound is important in the Science Museum and what might be happening in the future.
