Audiometer Art

The Arts Team were delighted to receive this unique artwork from Audiology who enjoyed a creative lunch break producing these brilliant drawings.

“We raised this Culture Club idea at our staff meeting, and some of my colleagues joined me in thinking of something to create.  My colleague Nina joked that we could create a drawing on our audiometers (we use these to test people’s hearing and we create a graph of each ear’s hearing ability, red for right ear and blue for left ear).  We had to be creative in our use of symbols, as you cannot use the same symbol at the same frequency twice, and also some symbols join together by creating a line between them, which in some cases can get in the way when you’re trying to ‘draw’ we found out!”
