CAT becomes part of 'The Fragmented Orchestra'
RSS Feed
Our partner the Centre for Alternative Technology (CAT) has rather a special event lined up. CAT has been chosen to host the ‘The Fragmented Orchestra’, a musical art installation that mirrors the function of the human brain and the way it processes sound to produce an ever-changing new instrument and composition.
It will be connected to the other sites throughout Britain to create a massive neural network through which different sounds can be heard. The sounds of ‘The Fragmented Orchestra’ will vary according to location; wind through a forest, the rotating of wind turbines and chatter of birds will be combined with incidental and performed sounds from members of the public.
We are looking forward to finding out exactly what the British brain network will come up with. As people use the instrument they will become both player and audience of a vast and evolving musical composition extended across the UK. Well worth a visit!
The project will be launched on 12th December 2008 and will run until 22nd February 2009 at the centre.
Switch to Good Energy quoting CAT and we'll donate £30 to them so they can continue their fantastic work. We'll give you £20 off your first bill too.
