Resonance: London Symphony Orchestra

In collaboration with Robyn Mackenzie (all images my own)

Resonance is an initiative for change

This speculative project, which was completed in my final term at university, is a campaign that is distributed by LSO to engage young people with the climate crisis in new ways.

The campaign consists of 12 concerts across 12 months, featuring climate-conscious artists like Aurora, Muse, Fatboy Slim, Bastille, Ludovico Einaudi and Radiohead. The events feature live, sound-reactive sound waves that move according to the sounds of our changing climate (falling trees, melting glaciers, burning wildfires).

Communicating to millennials

Career-driven millennials were our key target demographic, so our touchpoints were catered to where they frequent and interact—both digitally and physically. A great deal of our awareness stage of marketing was social media advertising, specifically utilising collaborations and partnerships with exisiting climate influencers and activists. We also created a lot of out-of-home materials, targeting public transport and urban areas, where commuters spend a lot of time.

Right: One of the OOH billboards with a live, sound-reactive graphic that represents the sounds around it. This is part of the awareness campaign—the initial hook that gets people thinking 'Why is that moving?'
