Tessa Ann from The Sound Healing Spa and Pedro Rebelo from Sonic Arts Research Centre (SARC) deliver a collaborative Sound Bath Experience at the Sonic Lab in SARC.

This unique immersive audio experience at connects us to our natural environment through Irish mythology, landscape and soundscape.

As part of this sound bath we will play immersive field recordings from locations around Ulster including rivers, forests and coastal soundscapes.

The power of sound to connect us to body and place plays a role in our well being and situates our listening.

This sound bath experience combines field recordings with instrumental sound associated with healing such as gongs and bells.

The experience will be followed by a discussion around sound and well being, listening and environment. How does listening collectively promote a sense of a ‘shared dream’?

Close your eyes, as you are guided through an experience of active listening. Tune into Tessa and Pedro’s carefully curated selection of sounds, gongs, bowls, and other instruments.

Sound and technical support by Isaac Gibson.

Immerse yourself in a series of real-world and imagined soundscapes heard over the Sonic Lab’s spatial audio array of forty-plus loudspeakers.

The event will last 1 hour 30 minutes.

Please wear loose, comfortable clothing and flat shoes.

Please bring your own yoga mat and blanket.

Further information on how to prepare for this event will be provided upon booking.
