In the Christie Studio: New Adventures in Sound, the intrepid sound art folks, are once again making magic in our Christie Studio with a unique installation entitled Whorl. Created by artists Craig Fahner and Neal Moignard, Whorl is an interactive sculpture that visualizes the resonant phenomena in salt. Using simple gestures, users generate visualizations based on touch.
In the Wychwood Theatre: The GeoArt Collective presents Paralandscape, an interactive adventure that explores imaginative geographies through Google Earth projections on a parachute. Going anywhere is just a shake away!
For other Wychwood Barns Nuit Blanche experiences, check out Magdalen Lau’s Morpheme and Canada’s smallest theatre as Rebecca Singh presents an evening of theatrical surprises.
