The Sound Cabinet of Curiosities

The sound cabinet of curiosities is inspired by the historical wunderkammern. It is a Sound art installation which will be assembled within a gallery space aiming to engross the audience in the same wonderment and astonishment as the original cabinets, but with the use of sound objects instead of visual ones.

Three fundamental questions need to be answered in order to realize this concept:

• How can one turn sound into an object?
• Which sounds could be considered as strange?
• How can sound be exhibited within a space?

Many other questions arise as the above are investigated. The aim of the installation is not to provide answers but to create even more questions to the audience as well as to the contributors.
