Devon Turnbull, also known as OJAS, has a dedicated listening room featuring his custom-built high-fidelity sound system as part of the "Art of Noise" exhibition at the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum in New York. The installation, titled HiFi Pursuit Listening Room Dream No. 3, occupies Andrew Carnegie's former personal library and features scheduled listening sessions with the artist or guests, including notable figures like filmmaker Josh Safdie, musician Laraaji, and artist Tom Sachs.

Turnbull's inclusion in a major museum exhibition and his representation by the prestigious Lisson Gallery signal a growing institutional recognition of sound and experiential design as legitimate forms of contemporary art. His journey from a niche passion project to the art world spotlight reflects broader trends in how museums and galleries are expanding their definitions of sculpture and artistic practice to include functional, immersive audio environments.
