Sonic Bubbles: Escaping noise, but at what cost?
Twenty Thousand Hertz - The stories behind the world's most recognizable and interesting sounds.
For over a century, humans have been using technology to shape our sonic environment. White noise machines, nature recordings, noise canceling headphones and high-tech hearables all allow us to create an auditory safe space we can escape into. But is it possible to have too much control over what you hear? Featuring media studies professor Mack Hagood.
Twenty Thousand Hertz is produced by Defacto Sound.
