    First, the obvious. Silence is most often tied to tranquility in nature, like a quiet sunset, a still forest. The hushed contentment of a sleeping baby pleases parent and child alike. And many religions have long correlated silence with contemplation of and reverence for gods or eternity. Early Hindu philosophy called silence “mauna,” linked it to ...

    Shen was also interested in how many negative connotations silence has. Despite the exalted place silence holds in many religions, there seem to be more sayings in favor of speaking up than shutting up — the squeaky wheel gets the grease, to name but one. Silence can mean something feels wrong, like the awkward silence in a conversation or the sens...

    Whatever bias there is against silence, the bias against noise is a lot louder — for good reason. The World Health Organization has identified noise pollution as a global health hazard affecting both developing and developed nations. The impact includes hearing impairment, sleep disturbance, mental-health effects, hypertension and increased blood p...

    “Silence is a doorway to a truth, into a realm beyond words,” says Shen says, who wrestled with how much spoken wisdom from experts like Pico Iyer, Julian Treasure, and Susan Cain to include in the film. “We strive so much to define the world and put words to it and understand it, but that’s where we get into trouble.” Um, what does that mean, exac...

Its anechoic (“free from echo”) chamber, made of fiberglass and insulated steel and concrete, has been measured at -9 decibels. An average room is about 30 decibels. Shen also spent some time in the chamber. ...

    The writer George Prochnik, whose 2011 book In Pursuit of Silence,inspired Shen to make the film, seems to understand silence the best. “When we throw around the term of silence, we may in the first instance imagine that we’re seeking some kind of absolute quiet, but very very few people look for that,” says Prochnik in Shen’s film. “What we’re loo...

    In short, silence is kind of like water. In its most highly purified, laboratory-made state, ultrapure water (used as a solvent in the semiconductor industry) has a distinctly strange and unpleasant tasteand can even leach minerals out of your body. It turns out that what makes water taste good to us are the various trace minerals, the temperature ...

  4. Less than a decade after its three season stint on television, Gilligan’s Island reigned supreme as a smash syndication success story. Picking up new fans each and every year, with scores of them being the after-school crowd, a revival via animation was a Gilligan-apropos no-brainer (sorry, little buddy!). And said revival comes with nearly a full complement of original castaways! Thanks to ...
