Golden Gate Bridge wind resistance barriers creates eerie sound
- vr46 6y agoI hope someone makes a Dogme 95 tribute creepy movie while this sound lasts. It’s perfect.
- keeganpoppen 6y agocan anyone vouch for how loud this is in person at the actual bridge? i feel like i wouldn't really mind, or even kinda like the sound, since at least it doesn't seem to have any terrible dissonances in it between the various ~"notes", but only if (1) it's something that is only occasionally noticeable and (2) if it isn't completely deafening on the bridge. but i guess i've always been a pretty big fan of sonification of public spaces, if you wanna call this that.
- elliottkember 6y agoI can. I was on it yesterday. I found it hauntingly beautiful - it’s eerie and ethereal. But it’s really, really loud. You can hear it for miles over the water, and from all over town. I had a motorcycle helmet on and earplugs in, and I was thankful - it was uncomfortably loud. It’s a really windy bay and I suspect this will be a very common complaint. A lot of people online are saying is beautiful and I agree- but if I could hear it 24/7 it would drive me crazy.
