A British Sign Language tour of the exhibition led by Martin Glover, exclusively for D/deaf and hard of hearing visitors, highlighting key artworks.

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 see, hear and feel 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.
