How to make them stop是一件交互声音装置，若干个由木板组成的音箱通过对外部声音的检测，既观众可以使用自己的任何声音触发音箱并听到掌声。
在当代社会中，掌声作为一种人为形成的声音，已经在人们心中不约而同的代表着对某种行为的赞赏，认可，并不再是单纯的个人声音，而是体现了群体的意识。在高分贝、热烈的、同一性的，如同排山倒海般的音墙中，一种集体下的行为似乎暗喻着群体的无意识，在索尔仁尼琴的著作《古拉格群岛》中，掌声被形容为一种权威的象征和崇拜，而我们应如何停止鼓掌。
In contemporary society, applause, as a man-made sound, has been in people's minds to represent the appreciation and recognition of a certain behavior, and is no longer a simple individual voice, but reflects the consciousness of the group. In the high decibel, intense, homogeneous, overwhelming wall of sound, a collective behavior seems to be a metaphor for the collective unconsciousness. In Solzhenitsyn's book the Gulag Archipelago, applause is described as a symbol of authority and worship, and how we should stop clapping.
