H.E.A.R.T.H.

Presentation of the artist in residence on Thursday, November 10 at 4 pm and performance starting at 6 pm

H.E.A.R.T.H. is an interactive sound installation comprising 8 bass drums, 2 heartbeat sensors, and a live musical performance. The goal is to synchronize, monitor, and convert the data of the heartbeats of two people into hits on the bass drums. While participants listen to the beats, their heart rates should slowly synchronize and end up at the same tempo.
