Yuri Suzuki is a sound designer and partner at Pentagram. Yuri’s artistic installations often aim to bring people together, use AI machine learning and crowdsourced data, whilst his commercial work, looks at creating innovative solutions to problems such as the introduction of sound in electric cars. In our conversation we talk about the use of physical synthesizers and capturing tactile sounds, the problem with Thomas Heatherwick’s bus, sound design for the public transport, the sound design scene in Japan in the early 2000s and many more topics.
