On Gilbert Bridge

In March 2025 we made a series of recordings in and around the Barbican Centre, with the idea of those sounds being folded back into the Observatory Station sound installation, so that the sounds of the Barbican itself become part of the stories being told by sound from around the world.  A sound walk starting at Gilbert Bridge, which leads into the Barbican above various water features and fountains. The hiss of flowing water is amplified by the brick and concrete surrounding us, and we continue into the Barbican Centre, listening to alien-sounding door beeps, the busy-ness of the lifts and people entering and leaving.  Recorded by Cities and Memory.
