Beyond Music : sound art parcours (EXTENDED until February 4)

Sound, light, movement: intimate parcours along four surprising sound installations.

Buzzing tubes, vibrating steel plates, blistering encounters of sound, light and movement. Beyond Music is an intimate trail along four surprising sound installations. In a small group you walk from work to work, taking your time to absorb each of the works’ diverse sound worlds. This edition of Beyond Music brings together the best elements of an exhibition (experiencing art spatially) and a concert (listening to a sounding story together) in a full corona proof format.

Beyond Music is completely sold out.

The sound art parcours opens its doors twice a day between January 21 and 28: on weekdays we start at 19:30 and 21:00, on Sundays at 14:00 and 15:30 (closed on Saturday). Please check and remember for which time slot you book your ticket(s), as you can only get in at the time slot you chose, due to the very limited capacity. STUK is only accessible via STUK Reception at the Naamsestraat side - members of the STUK team will be available to guide you around.

Installations

Jeroen Vandesande - Circuit 04
Mika Oki - Parhelion
Christoph De Boeck - Murmurs
Mariska De Groot - Incidence of Light

The parcours opens with the installation Circuit 04 by sound artist Jeroen Vandesande, who explores the phenomenon of 'feedback' through a dialogue between rotating tubes and speakers. Moments later you will be immersed in an immersive blackbox experience with sound, projection and smoke by French electronic artist Mika Oki. She created this work Parhelion especially for Beyond Music. Sound artist Christoph De Boeck shows Murmurs, a brutalistic construction of resonating steel plates. Finally, for Incidence of Light, the Dutch media artist Mariska De Groot is inspired by the phenomenon of the accidental incidence of light. Based on the technique of 'optical sound' she creates a dizzying audiovisual trip.

Mika Oki - Parphelion is a co-production of STUK - House for Dance, Image & Sound and Meakusma, with support of Flanders and German-speaking Community.
