Lighthouse presents The Space in Sound: a day of talks and an evening performance exploring ways sound can occupy space.
About
The event offers an opportunity to discover ways in which sound appears in its physical, psychological, compositional, digital, electronic and analogue forms. Themes will interrogate spatial sound, architecture, objects, experimentation and how it can play, interact and synergise between individuals, communities and the environment.
This is an event for sound practitioners, artists, musicians, architects, students and anyone with an interest in the creative possibilities of sound.
Concessions are available. Ticketing information at the bottom of the page.
The Space in Sound is inspired by the former Lighthouse programme The Sound of Story, an exploration of sound, music and storytelling, that ran 2014-16.
> Symposium: Multiplicity of Listening
Registration: 12:30pm
Talks: 1pm – 5pm
“All revolutions have essentially aimed at changing the environment in order to change the individual.” – Aldous Huxley
An afternoon of talks exploring different ways of thinking about how we listen to sound, and cultural attitudes towards the act of listening. We will interrogate our understanding of sound in space- how it can be detected through our ears, but can also be felt, seen and experienced as an idea. Themes will include spatial sound, architecture, machines, experimentation and how it can play, interact and synergise individuals, communities and the environment.
Speakers include Haroon Mirza, Rie Nakajima, Paul Davies, Lucy Harrison, Kersten Glandien.

Doors: 7:30pm
