Connection<br />
This project aimed to connect a natural area, the river<br />
Mätäjoki, with the urban space of Kannelmäki railway<br />
station. The sound of bird song was recorded and then<br />
played at the railway station from a designed object, the<br />
Cone. Hearing natural sounds in unexpected surroundings<br />
surprised and delighted passers by, sparking conversations<br />
between strangers. The intervention created a<br />
special atmosphere and a shared experience, reminding<br />
inhabitants about the natural areas of Kannelmäki.<br />
