Cover #4 The Art of Hearing: A Conversation Between Silence and Colour
By Dyon Scheijen, Clinical Physicist – Audiologist & Artist The image on this issue’s cover is not merely an artwork - it is a conversation. A conversation in colour. A dialogue between silence and sound, between science and emotion. It is part of a monumental triptych, two metres high and six metres wide, created as the centrepiece for the exhibition Hearing, Seeing, and Feeling in the museum of Valkenburg, the Netherlands. Acrylic and medium on specially prepared fabric. Ri

#3 The golden lines of life: Where ART meets Science
Sometimes, it’s a detail that tells a story. Not loud. Not in the spotlight. But quietly present. Like the golden streaks on my canvases. They shine, catch the light, draw your gaze. And if you look a little longer, you’ll see that they are not just lines. They’ve been healed, but never hidden. They tell a story. On the third cover of ENT & Audiology News , such a detail is visible. A close-up of those golden lines. For the attentive observer, it might already be a signature

#1 The power of sound – How art and science come together in acoustics and perception
The first cover of ENT & Audiology News features the left panel of a diptych. This artwork was not created by chance. It serves a purpose - solving a problem that exists in many spaces: poor acoustics. The Board of Directors at Adelante noticed that meetings were becoming increasingly difficult. Voices blurred, conversations became exhausting. The culprit? An acoustic environment that demanded too much effort to follow discussions. Together with colleagues, I investigated ho

Where ART meets Science: The story beyond struggle
What happens in the world affects me deeply. Human rights, rights in general, are being violated at an alarming rate. Political leaders normalize violence and division. They accept that diversity must not exist. And as always, it is framed in terms of good and evil. Because everyone wants to be the hero. Every person, at their core, wants to do good. But that "good" is shaped by the information they receive. We all know films that draw us into a story, justifying the actions
