Marja Ahti's Membranes - sonic and haptic thresholds
Tom Service presents the latest in new music performance including works inspired by the shifting glaciers and icecaps of Antarctica and by vibrating skin.
Tom Service presents the latest in new music including works inspired by the glaciers and icecaps of Antarctica and by skin and vibrating membranes from Cameron Biles-Liddell, the sound artist Marja Ahti and the percussionist and make-up artist Crystabel Riley. There's also Basque composer Mikel Urquiza's vocal work Howl: "The planet is burning and no alarm clock is ringing. Monkeys howl in jungles, there will soon be no more, bears' roar, melting icebergs, too far away to be heard. I will cry for her."
