"Do plants get annoyed by noise?"

Section MS11, Mhamad Safa

Keywords:

We often overlook the intricate lives of the silent inhabitants sharing our planet. I wanted to explore the emotional world of plants, thinking about a plant anthropomorphic concept: "Do plants get annoyed by noise?" The world is growing louder, and plants also suffer from it. They might not have ears, but they're still able to detect sound waves. Constant noise can even drive biodiversity loss among plants. In this project, I want the audience to put themselves into the perspective of plants and think about the impact of noise on living things in a humorous way. My objective is to explore how plants "react" to various noises encountered in daily life, by using a range of different sound recordings.
