Interference 53°N,42°E is a research project dealing with human generated underwater noise pollution in the North Sea. With three different iterations (v1.0, v2.0 and v3.0), it focuses on different multimedia and multisensory ways to represent and experience the chaotic underwater sonic environment.
v1.0 uses the metaphor of ship traffic to gain an understanding of the formation of the sonic environment. The work focuses on shipping noise in particular which directly overlaps the frequency band of acoustic communication signals used by many marine an
