Four loudspeakers, two transducers, three bass shakers and alucobond (mirror) panels

in collaboration with Olivier Goethals

Concertgebouw Brugge, Belgium

(since September 2012)

In 2012, Concertgebouw Brugge invited me to create an audiovisual installation in the stairwell of the Lantaarn tower as part of the project The Sound Factory. In collaboration with architect Olivier Goethals, an associate of the firm De Vylder, I wanted to establish a new ‘reading’ of the continuous flow of stairs and landings. By listening to the space, its aftersounds, reverberation and echo, we became aware of the spatial contrasts and different auditory qualities. By using mirrors, loudspeakers, transducers and bass shakers, we wanted to create a new auditory experience of the space.
