DESCRIPTION:An immersive sonic experience about the spirit of academic inqu
 iry\n\nSurrounded by an octophonic ring of powerful loudspeakers\, you are
  going to sit in the dark for 70 minutes\, wear an eye mask\, and be taken
  on a sonic trip with fellow members of your academic community.\n\nYou'll
  hear the vibrations of the Golden Gate Bridge\, footsteps of ants\, recor
 dings made a century ago\, and silence turned into music. You'll be transp
 orted to 1930s Berlin\, up to the ionosphere\, under a sand dune\, and int
 o the middle of a choir singing in a church built in the 6th century.\n\nY
 ou'll hear ideas\, essays\, books\, theories\, and contemporary research a
 ll translated into soundscapes that challenge you to rethink the world thr
 ough your ears instead of your eyes ... and ultimately to reconnect with w
 hat makes academic inquiry so meaningful.\n\nThe performance will be follo
 wed by a Q&A with co-producers Chris Hoff and Sam Harnett.\n\n \n\nBIOS\n\
