In New York City – ranked among the top 10 loudest cities in the world – noise is a constant.

Guggenheim Museum offers a serene and silent escape: PSAD Synthetic Desert III.
The art work, conceived by Doug Wheeler, realized by the Guggenheim Museum, and sponsored by BASF Corporation, manipulates sound, light and space in a "semi-anechoic chamber" designed to suppress all but the lowest levels of ambient sound.
