We can learn from human history that walls of thought sometimes lead to the building of physical walls. The negative effects of thought often create hatred and exclusion against groups in a society. The curating team detected a link between the festival's topic and my work, for it examines people's reactions to sound, associated with three different major cultures and religions: Christianity, Islam, and Judaism.
