Hi everyone,

I’d like to invite this group to share what they know about turning traditional 
gallery spaces into small video theaters, and the acoustic treatments required 
to mitigate reverb and sound bleed.

At the MFA, we mitigate bleed by building shared walls with staggered studs, 
and rock wool insulation. We generally don’t use doors for exhibition video 
rooms, but light lock halls usually suffice to contain the sound enough.

For acoustics, we’ve been using carpet tiles and when appropriate black 
commando cloth curtains, floor to ceiling. This is pretty effective but 
aesthetically distinct, so I’m especially interested to hear what others have 
done in this regard, for example with sound absorbing panels, etc.

Thanks all,
George
