Echowall is a collaborative research platform based at Heidelberg University born out of an increasing need in Europe for sound and in-depth knowledge about contemporary China. It recognizes that fact-based research should be informed by a wide range of experts in both Europe and China and that it should be accessible to a broad audience.
  

Echowall draws its inspiration from the “Echo Wall” in the Temple of Heaven Park in Beijing, a circular structure with unique acoustical properties dating back to the early 15th century. The architecture allows people standing at opposite sides of the space to communicate clearly, even in whispers.
