The Sound Museum Collective invites you into our electro-magnetically primed playground. Electromagnetic waves are traveling in the spaces all around us, all the time. These waves emanate from almost every type of electronic device from a washing machine, to an analog radio, to cellphones. In Body Conduit; An Experiment in Electromagnetic Socio-Interference, we tune into these waves that surround us, emitted by our y2k22 environment, manipulated by our bodies. These waves have been bent / reinscribed outside their typical parameters and now require your touch to activate them into sound. We invite you to amplify the invisible sonic environment and consider the ways in which these typically unheard sounds comment on our relationships to the planet, each other and our technologies.

This interactive sound installation is a part of Radio AAI, an interactive storefront highlighting our experiments with radio at Asian Arts Initiative.
