“Situated on the eastern lawn adjacent to Madison Avenue between 24th and 25th street, Voices in the Subway Station, the third installation in Jim Campbell’s public project at Madison Square Park, features LEDs encased in two dozen glass tablets (14” x 18” each) arrayed across the lawn at ground level. The light pulses emanating from each tablet rhythmically modulate to represent the voices of individual travelers as recorded in conversation on a subway platform, combining to create a visual symphony rendered in light.”
