NOISE CAPITAL is completed feature-length audio documentary exploring our complex relationship with the urban soundscape. How does sound become noise, and who decides?

The programme blends interviews with a range of contributors including soundscape researcher John Levack Drever, the Noise Abatement Society, venue operators at MOTH Club and the George Tavern, acousticians, nightlife advocates, mediators, venue owners, and writer Emma Warren. Through these voices, the doc examines the frictions between complaints, regulation, and cultural expression.
