\u201cWhy can\u2019t sounds be visible?
\n<\/em>Would the feedback from ear to eye cause fatal oscillation?\u201d
\n<\/em>(Pauline Oliveros)<\/p>\n

What is sound? What is this phenomenon that we can neither see nor touch, but can touch us?
\nThe Belgian artist Els Viaene has been working for over 15 years with the medium of sound in large scale installations and compositions \u2013 the sound experience was always the end product. According to her perception, however, apparatuses, objects and technologies have always stood in the foreground \u2013 between her and the sound.
\nIn Ways of seeing sound, she investigated sound at it\u2019s source, approaching it as a physical phenomenon in the moment it is shaped: as vibration, wave, change in air pressure. She analyzed the opto-acoustic experiments collected by John Tyndall around 1876* and reconstructed in collaboration with the Ghent University Museum (GUM) many of the historical setups. Based on that, she developed a series of new experiments and methods to make sound visible and takes us on a journey of perception.
\nThe exhibition for Liebig 12 is a Wunderkammer in which science and sound collide and the concepts of seeing and hearing blur.<\/p>\n
