Have you ever wondered what a solar panel sounds like? How it is to be surrounded with a metallic plate? Or how one operates a mechanical electrified mbira?

Fractions is an evening that revolves around performances for new instruments and sound sculptures. The phenomena of sound, its physicality and relationship with space is explored. By using mechanical instruments, interactive lights, sensors and sound sculptures, new perspectives of sound are challenged. It is a playground of interactions that invites the audience to move around and compose their own listening experience.

Performances by Bimetric, Juanlu Montoro, Kyaz, Laura Agnusdei and Sól Ey
