In this episode of Holistic Podcasts, we speak to Dr Marta Michalska, a researcher on sonic history, on how we perceive sound and how our quest for ‘silence’ is in fact futile.

We often try to escape “noise” and strive for quieter places – where we can think, relax, be with nature. But we very often realize that the silence we seek is not in fact silence at all.

Hosted by John Beauchamp
