Listening Glasses are hollow spheres with a funnel on one side (inserted into the ear) and an opening on the other. Each glass is calibrated to a particular musical tone. If this tone sounds in the surrounding air, the glass resonates and amplifies it. Scientist Herman von Helmholtz (1821-94) developed glass resonators to help him discern subtle partial tones in the sound of musical instruments. Listening Glasses remembers his work and explores the appeal of finding \u201cmusic\u201d in the ambient sound of our cities.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>[lang_nl]Deze sculpturale installatie nodigt mensen uit om met behulp van glazen instrumenten muzikale tonen in hun omgeving te ontdekken. Listening Glasses zijn holle glazen bollen met een trechter aan de ene kant en een opening aan de andere kant. Elk object is afgestemd op een bepaalde toon. Van zodra deze in de omgeving opduikt, zal het voorwerp deze laten weerklinken en versterken.[\/lang_nl]<\/p>\n<p>[lang_fr]Cette installation sculpturale invite le public \u00e0 d\u00e9couvrir les tons musicaux qui les entourent \u00e0 l&#8217;aide d&#8217;instruments de verre.
