PIMA! Fest presents 'Sounding Ennis' A Generative Sound Installation by Kerry Hagan & Nicholas Ward

PIMA! FEST presents 'Sounding Ennis', a generative sound installation by Kerry Hagan & Nicholas Ward in the form of a communal table where we hear recordings made by Ennis residents. 

The public were invited to record interesting moments to be included in the sound artwork. Recordings captured a variety of daily life activities such as kitchen sounds, music sessions, playgrounds, sports events, nature and stories. The recordings will be combined and manipulated into a real-time generative soundscape; continuing without start or end. Listeners will be invited to sit around the table and plug in their headphones, sharing an experience that is both public and private. The table will also act as a light board, highlighting the community members who contributed the recordings.

Sounding Ennis will juxtapose the different recordings to reveal differences and similarities of the diverse sonic experiences of the people of Ennis.

Sounding Ennis will be displayed in the foyer of glór as part of PIMA! FEST, 15th – 16th October and will remain on display until Friday 21st October.
