A new county museum, ‘The Collection’, was recently opened in Lincoln’s city centre, including a sound system based around Amina’s AIW In-Wall Loudspeakers.
The landmark £12.5 million development, designed by London architects Panter Hudspith, was officially opened by HRH the Duke of Gloucester, and houses art and archaeology from the area, including a large Roman mosaic and many other finds from the museum site itself.
The Audio
system is being used as part of an invisible sound system
for a “talking wall”, located in the museum’s Orientation
Hall. The wall is a public artwork, commissioned from Dutch
artist Adinda van t’Klooster,
which broadcasts a multitude of pre-recorded speeches, describing
different aspects of Lincolnshire history. These stories are
played through 22 Amina flat panel speakers, concealed in
apertures in the wall.
