Check out Queen’s House, Greenwich 2 by Ben Johnson. Or, <a href='https://www.cbc.ca/radio/ideas/liminal-space-popularity-1.6365390'>check out this article from the CBC on liminal space photography</a>. In the collection of photos, you can hear and feel the silence they capture. It is a bit eerie. For those interested in film, Martin Scorsese’s film Silence is a "must watch at least once in your life" kind of film. Fair warning, the movie is a deep and profound meditation on faith, but it is not an easy watch. Clocking in at 2 hours and 41 minutes, the viewing experience is at times difficult…which is part of the point. And, at the very least, being a Martin Scorsese film, you know you are in the hands of brilliant director. You can find a trailer of the film <a href='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IqrgxZLd_gE'>here</a>, and perhaps the last line of the trailer will convince you to give it a view.</p>
