"The Missing Voice" is an audio tour by Janet Cardiff. These 24 images were shot before, during and after completing the tour and are a response to both the tour and to Jawed Ashraf's images, which were shot while listening to and following the same soundtrack, a few days previous to me.
"Part urban guide, part fiction, part film noir, Janet Cardiff's audio walk entwines you in a narrative that shifts through time and space. Intimate, even conspiratorial, Cardiff has created, a psychologically absorbing experience — for an audience of one at a time." more...
The tour takes place around Whitechapel in London and I highly recommend it. You can go to the library to borrow a CD Walkman. Update: the library have stopped providing the tour. If you can get a copy of the book (affiliate link), it has a CD with it. Update 2: the library has closed (taken over by the Whitechapel gallery extension) so even with a copy of the audio you'd have to miss the opening part of the walk as it starts inside the library. Update 3: Good news! The audio is now available here: Artangel.
Sorry for the small images. They were made in 2002 when the web was a smaller place. I intend to update them in the future.
