At night, the urban landscape changes dramatically. Streets that were filled with people and cars in the rush hour become empty at midnight.
Sounds of urban landscape disappear, making even shouting appear very loud.
Being fascinated by this change, I propose an experiment that will let us investigate this phenomena a bit further and will provoke questions in ours and minds of the passerbys.
