LCB Depot will present, in the Print Room and Foyer:
Davide Baldazzi’s ‘Molekules‘ – an ephemeralbody of sound particles across two face-to-face multichannel sound panels;
Bruno Iglesias’s ‘Frame of Phase‘ uses evolving phase relationships of sounds across multiple moving speakers to comment on the ever-changing perspectives, topics and positions of today’s media information outlets.
