Cardiff layers sounds over the real perceptions one experience of different types and tech textures of space.
Cardiff's work explores how technology impacts on our consciousness. She has time-based fictional works that are experienced by participants who have headset attached to a Discman or DV Walkman and follow pre-recorded instructions that lead them into open-ended and ambiguous narratives.
There are similar contrast between her work and ours because of the headphones which allows to hear what is happening. However we are doing it in a different entirely environment. Through research and development we know how dramatic it can be for anyone to go blind. So we don't want anyone who goes in there feeling scared

There were a couple of works that we looked into that we thought were related in a way of using headphones as the main narrative to the story of her works. The way in which she uses sound is more for normal people.
