The city seen and heard
Compare crowds and sound in PlayTime, Do the Right Thing and Koyaanisqatsi. A street can host exchange, direct bodies or create rhythms. Choose a scene making each city recognisable without consulting a map.
What to watch for
Distinguish street sound from music organising images. Does rhythm change when the camera stays still?
