Collective Resonance. Exploring and Creating Sound Together
Sound works in mysterious ways. In this performance piece, led by neuroscientist and sound artist Victor Hugo Minces, you will embark on a series of experiences creating surprising sounds with everyday objects. Then, you will use those objects to become part of a gigantic collective human musical instrument, and we will all play together. You will leave the auditorium excited and ready to share the sound experiences with your students.
