View a video preview of CMC's Culture Night.

CMC will be using the Apple iPhone and iPod Touch for sound installations on Culture Night.

Under the title InterPlay II, these interactive sound installations will allow visitors to experience a whole new approach to sound and music. Specially created for Culture Night by Irish composers Jonathan Nangle and Brian Bridges, with Brian Solon as Production Manager, they will allow visitors to experience contemporary music in a very immediate way.

Visitors will be able to use iPhone and iPod Touch technology to interact with a new electronic piece of music created by Jonathan Nangle. iPhones will be provided for the adventurous visitor to try out whilst the uninitiated can enjoy the musical creations that ensue.

In the Centre's outdoor courtyard, Brian Bridges will create a site-specific installation which will sound different to each visitor as they move around the musical space.

"The Contemporary Music Centre is at the forefront of what is happening in new music and music technology. We are delighted to have an opportunity through Culture Night to showcase exciting new work and technological developments to visitors of all ages and backgrounds," says Karen Hennessy, CMC's Promotion Manager.

Culture Night 2009, Friday 25 September, 6.00pm - midnight. Admission free.
The courtyard installation will also run daily from 28 September to 4 October 2009, 12.00–4.00pm

Culture Night is an initiative of Temple Bar Cultural Trust to encourage people to experience what is on offer from Dublin's numerous cultural organisations. Since its beginning in 2006, Culture Night has grown to include over 100 of Dublin city's arts and cultural organisations. This year Culture Night is expanding to 11 other counties around Ireland.
