Sony has opened a new exhibition called “Sound of Silence” at its Tokyo gallery. The show looks at quiet spaces in everyday life. It invites visitors to notice the value of stillness and calm in a noisy world.

The exhibition uses sound design, visual art, and interactive installations. These elements work together to create peaceful environments. Guests can walk through rooms filled with soft light and gentle sounds. Some areas have no sound at all. This helps people focus on their own thoughts and feelings.
Sony says the idea came from growing concerns about constant noise in cities. People today are surrounded by alerts, traffic, and digital distractions. The company wanted to offer a place where visitors could pause and reflect.
One part of the exhibit uses special audio technology developed by Sony. It plays subtle tones that change based on how people move through the space. Another section shows photographs of empty streets, quiet forests, and silent train stations. All images highlight moments when the world seems to stop.
The “Sound of Silence” exhibition is free to enter. It runs through the end of the month at Sony’s Ginza location. Staff say they hope guests leave feeling refreshed and more aware of the quiet around them.

Sony believes silence is not just the absence of noise. It is a space where creativity and peace can grow. The company spent months designing each room to support this message. Visitors are welcome to spend as much time as they need in any area.
