Peter Cusack focuses on environmental sound and acoustic ecology; he makes sound recordings in the field and in the wild. He is involved in projects involving community arts, focusing on research into sound and our perception of a particular place, and making documentary recordings in areas with a specific sonic character, such as those affected by an environmental disaster. The space of a railway station is  in general very inspiring in terms of possibilities relating to such a wide range of artistic concepts. Through the artist’s recordings of the station’s surroundings, the visitor gets a distinct range of information, insights differing from visual images or textual messages. This different type of message makes one perceive the place in an unusual way, a different experience of space. The audio recording fixes a specific period of time, a reality that no longer exists; the visitor thus becomes conscious once again of a specific place through the recording of what is already absent – not as a structure of fixed points from which relationality is derived, but as a network that is constantly happening (Miroslav Petříček). Reality becomes an organism, an “actual entity” – we are part of the organism and live simultaneously with it. (Alfred North Whitehead) This way of perception can make one aware of multiple levels of sensitivity. It can awaken in a subtle way the level of individual sensitivity which is not given space in the usual stereotypical rush of existence and is displaced. The choice of the Braník train station is not accidental. It retains the historical importance of its station building; its location in between several distinctive poetic sites is exceptional. The nearby landmark – the building of the Branik Brewery, the presence of the river, the public transport terminal and wild thickets serving as refuge for various bird species can all be inventively conveyed through the artist’s sound “insights”. The recordings also reflect a historical fact: the existence of the so-called “Sázava River Pacific Express” train on the route from Braník via Vrané nad Vltavou and Čerčany which is still operated on holidays as a steam train.
