EXPLORING SOUND SOLASTALGIA The piece “Wave - exploring sound solastalgia” for the Sound Bench seeks to give sense and explore basic affects related to our sonically changing life worlds Nature sounds are often seen as relaxing, and understood as reconnecting our minds and bodies with something primeval.

March 28 - April 24, 2022 Sound contains energy that can be converted into motion if the sound bounces or passes through an object. The object can absorb some of the sound that passes and then steals some of the energy that is converted into a force that can affect its movement. Some of the sound will also be reflected by the object and this also gives rise to a force and movement. Julia Rakel Öjb
