Synopsis.
Housed in a reflective inflatable structure in front of the building, the experience blended acoustic properties with architecture and aesthetics, nestling 24 speakers of various sizes into its voluminous walls to produce a three-dimensional sonic landscape, determined by the speakers’ varying frequency response.
Upon entering, visitors encountered an atmospheric, evolving soundscape that they can explore with their bodies, by moving or staying still. Layers of sound overlap to conjure up different dreamscapes – the gentle seascape of Ischia, the tranquility of a morning hike through the hills of Jeju Island, the bustle of New York’s streets – woven together with musical elements created by Seungmin Cha.
