Silence 2

There is a very well-known secret MTR platform in Sheung Wan which is not everyone know about it. Also, there is not everyone know about its history. So, once I know about this, I go there to find out if there is any special sound can be found in this area.

This platform formerly is for a station called Rumsey Station which is an interchange station for a rail line like the proposed Sha Tin-Central Line and the Island Line of MTR. However, there is some reasons like the suspension of building Western Island Line and the conflicts on the railway operations. So, the platform is being emptied.

Somebody says there seems to be some strange things happened and also as it is so quiet that makes people think there may be some mysterious things behind. So, I decided to do a sound walk while I went to visit a gallery. There is no strange sounds. But as it is not a busy platform. The sound that we might not noticed in our daily life are very clearly heard, like the sound of the escalators, people walking etc. And there is full of air-conditioning machine sound which makes me feel a little bit cold. The whole soundscape can also described as cold and Low-fi as well.
