The Quiet Zone (Work in Progress) (2025)

Exploring the sounds of a "quiet" public area on Danish trains.

The Quiet Zone is a sound art project (work in progress) that blends field recordings, essayistic text, and photographs in an exploration of the Quiet Zone – an area on Danish trains zoned off for quietude.

The Quiet Zone exists in nearly all Danish train carriages. It is marked by doors that slide open with a wave of the hand. In this zone, which all commuters have an almost trivial relationship with, we all cultivate a silence that is potent with sounds and movements. So much happens here that we take for granted. This project explores the sonic qualities that can be found here and the potential they hold. What connections do we have to ourselves and each other in this zone? What boundaries exist between this and other zones? How do we move within this space? What do we expect from it? What does it expect from us?
