HiFi (High-Fidelity) sound perception is the subjective human experience of high-quality, accurate audio reproduction that minimizes noise and distortion. It relies on psychoacoustics, where the brain interprets sound waves, recognizing spatial realism, transparency, and detailed frequency response as superior quality. Perception is highly personal, influenced by mood, room acoustics, and expectations

The HiFi Pursuit Listening Room Dream No. 3 features a large-scale, handmade audio system by multi-disciplinary artist Devon Turnbull. Known under his creative pseudonym OJAS, Turnbull handcrafts high-fidelity audio systems designed to envelop the listener in sound that is as rich in texture as it is in emotion.

Upon entering, visitors will experience realistic, natural sound from Turnbull’s sculptures and a chance to slow down and engage deeply with sound.

Part of Art of Noise. Organized by the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Art of Noise celebrates groundbreaking design that enhances and visualizes our musical experiences. From concert posters to record albums, phonographs to digital music players, handheld radios to sound systems, Art of Noise takes visitors on an exploration of how design has transformed people’s relationship to music over the past 100 years. The exhibition features more than 300 artworks drawn largely from the collections of Cooper Hewitt and SFMOMA, as well as teenage engineering’s unique choir installation and Devon Turnbull’s immersive listening room.
