Mihika Bansal – Looking Outwards – 10

For this post I will be looking at the project, Sounding Circuits – Audible Histories. This piece is an interactive audio system surrounded by rare objects, artifacts, and recordings from the early history of electronic music. It was installed at Columbia University with their Department of Music. this exhibition highlights the significant contributions of pioneering electronic and computer music composers Otto Luening, Pauline Oliveros, Edgar Varèse, and Charles Dodge. The piece specifically highlights the manner in which their different way of thinking caused so much progress in the music world.

The audio itself is presented in a 360 degree manner causing the users to become completely immersed into the space. This piece was curated by Seth Cluett.
