This Weathered Image of Planetary Sound: Bidston Observatory as Technical Land and Logistical Media
A sonic and archival investigation into the emergence of modern weather practices in the port city. By exploring the accumulative media of the observatory, this research examines how Bidston Observatory became a vital site of industrial management and dominance over time and tides for the city of Liverpool, enabling commerce, insurance and modern logistic through industrialised timekeeping and weather-making in the 19th and 20th century.
