History of sound technology and worker immigration is about the migratory patterns of labour immigration to America, and then to the space of Michigan. It also mimics the development and migration of sound technology, sound effects, art and music genres that crossed and crisscrossed the Atlantic, between Europe and America. 

Myself and others ask the phrase "If you can hear it"through the sound collage...which refers to microphones and recorded sound.ounds from this mix are extracted from samples from radio and newsreels footage, live music recordings, television, and also from visits to the Lautarchiv (Sound archive) of Humboldt University in Berlin. Other sources included oral history interviews from the Labor History Project at the University of Michigan.
