BELL ORCHESTRE SOUND HOUSE NOW LAUNCHED AT THE SOCIETY FOR ARTS AND TECHNOLOGY
Enter an imaginary house made of music and memory with Bell Orchestre Sound House: An interactive musical score!
Directed by Vincent Morisset and Caroline Robert of AATOAA, the participatory audiovisual installation summons the sounds of Bell Orchestre’s 2021 album, House Music.
The installation takes the form of an interactive abstract house where visitors can wander through a surreal space, play with the music, and interact with the environment. As participants pick and place an array of sentimental domestic artefacts around the room, the Sound House transforms: a spatialized musical score is co-composed in real time invoking an affective, communal creative feeling. Melodies, moods and points of view are triggered: the weather changes, the seasons shift, time and place slide by outside its windows.
The Bell Orchestre Sound House is running at the Society for Arts and Technology (SAT)’s new gallery space from June 7 to July 27.
