A point of view can provide the listener with an understanding of what that character feels on an emotional or physical level. It can be what a single character is experiencing in contrast to what other characters are experiencing even within the same scene. Considering Akomfrah’s approach to sound in “The Nine Muses” (Akomfrah 2010), Komfrah mainly uses archived sounds from the BBC Archive to tell the stories of immigrants moving into England. He often uses folk music, poetry and speech of African/Indian origin to convey the experience migrants had in moving to England for the first time. This archival sound is also used in contrast to newer footage of both Alaska and the UK to compare more recent points of view to those displayed in the archive footage.
