Execution
Advertisements on Digital billboards in the centre of Amsterdam were silenced and turned into respectful interactive monuments to the fallen of WWII.
Each screen pays tribute to a brave individual who fought for our freedom, and gives you
access to a unique recording of their story. Every billboard has a different story, a story
that took place during the war, and happend exactly at the point where the screen is
standing.
Each story comes to life as an immersive 3D sound experience. The narrative is third-person perspective. 3D sound design places the story around the listener in the exact GPS location, surrounding the listeners, so they really feel the events unfolding. The music ensures recognisability in the prologue and epilogue of each story and adds an extra emotional layer to the stories without over dramatising it. Staying true to the people and their stories.
