Interactive Installation The Sound of Amsterdam | Sonic Skills George Hendrik Breitner — De Dam, Collection Amsterdam Museum, on loan from Stedelijk Museum. Inthe Amsterdam Museum presented The Sound of Amsterdam, an interactive installation that allowed visitors to explore sonic changes in the sounds of Amsterdam city. Museum sound could also listen to stories on how city dwellers coped ring noise and silence in these years, and how the urban soundscape changed during World War II. Annelies Jacobs was involved in the historical research for this project, and Alexandra Supper in the communication between the American acoustic consultancy firm HMMH, the Amsterdam Museum, sound recordist Arnoud Traa and students. The project attracted wide press interest, and its binaurally recorded sounds of historical artefacts were subsequently used in other settings, such as the VPRO-NTR television series on the nineteenth century De IJzeren Eeuw. The outreach project not only drew on academic publications but also resulted in new ones.
