ÆTHER
Sound Installation
Venue: Linjen 13 Festivalen, Värmeverket, Stockholm
2025
We were invited to participate in Linje 13 Festival at Värmeverket in Stockholm this year. For this, we decided to build a sound installation specific to the corridor leading from the front entrance of the festival to one of the main rooms. The initial idea was to build something that was real-time responsive, that could run continuously over the course of the festival, whilst also being airy, light and soft, providing a brief immersive experience for passerby's in this transitional space.
The result was a collection of handmade copper-pipe chimes, tuned to the 31-EDO microtonal scale, that were mic'd up and run through a granular synth to add a second layer of more lush, soft sound to complement the clang of the chimes.
