Audio Described Tour of Feel the Sound
An Audio Described tour of the exhibition, for blind and partially sighted visitors, led Marcus Dickey Horley, who will describe key works on display.
Frequencies, sound, rhythms and vibrations define everything around us. From the soundtrack of our environments to the rhythm of our heart, frequencies are constantly creating and changing how we sense the world.
Move to the beat of international car sound systems, sing with a digital quantum choir, uncover your inner symphony, experience music without sound and discover a song for your future self. Each installation gives you the chance to explore your body as a listening device, rethinking our relationship with ourselves.
Please meet at the entrance to The Curve on Level G.
Under 14s to be accompanied by an adult.
Produced by the Barbican, co-produced by Mon Takanawa: The Museum of Narratives, Tokyo, Japan.
Feel the Sound is sponsored by Destination Partner: Culture Mile BID and Audio Partner d&b audiotechnik with additional support from the Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation and the Daiwa Anglo-Japanese Foundation.
