Description

WET SOUNDS Presented in collaboration with The Music Gallery Saturday September 7th, 7pm (*Note if you are looking for the 4pm Wet Sounds performance, it is part of the Art Spin Bike Tour only) Wet Sounds is a sound installation in a swimming pool led by UK-based artist Joel Cahen. Using underwater and over water speakers it immerses the audience in a unique experience of public space and an unparalleled listening experience. Sound travels 4.5 times quicker in water than in air. It physically connects listeners through vibration. Here, like in the womb, sound is perceived by bone conduction, by the inner ear, giving the impression of it being produced inside the listener’s head rather than through speakers. Split between a multi-channel underwater sound system, the surreal musical experience takes listeners on a journey. Audience members are invited to don their swimsuits and take to the pool to listen to live performances by PlutonOvarian, Heidi Chan, and Prince Nifty.
