Wired, uh, gets physical (their phrase!) while looking at the way music affects our bodies:
Biorhythm: Music and the Body is an exhibition of sonic experiments and installations from artists across the globe, all exploring how music moves your feelings — and your feet.
“It’s about letting people experience sound in ways they’ve never experienced it before,” says exhibit director Michael John Gorman, director of the exhibit, which will be at Eyebeam Art and Technology Center here. “We’re only just beginning to understand the basic ways we respond to music.”
Brought over from Dublin’s Science Gallery, Biorhythm tries to answer questions like, what makes a pop song so catchy? How does sound give us awareness of space and dimension? Why do minor chords sound so sad?
