Sonic Intervention

Old Joe’s bells resonate across campus and beyond, but its unique sound often goes unnoticed in daily life. This immersive audio installation invites Birmingham to hear ‘Old Joe’ in a new way—drawing attention to the Chamberlain Memorial Clock Tower’s significance as a sonic landmark while blurring the lines between past and present, tradition and innovation. You can experience the compositions between 20th October and 26th October 2025.
