By Issy Packer  Wednesday Feb 14, 2024

Innovation in Sound exhibition is a free, public showcase of cutting-edge sound art pieces and performances produced by third-year undergraduate students at dBs Institute.

Taking place on April  25 at The Cellars at Bristol Beacon between 12pm and 10pm, the showcase will include a huge range of innovative and experimental projects.

The projects will explore the limits of sound, the application of audio as artistic expression and sound’s integration with emerging technologies.

is needed now More than ever
Keep our city's journalism independent.

Explaining the vision behind the annual Innovation in Sound exhibition, Dr. Emmanuel Spinelli, a module leader at dBs Institute, says: “It is an occasion to mix new technologies with a more conceptual, more meaningful approach to music-making.

“There is a whole industry out there based on non-commercial artistic practices that can serve to improve society, to improve well-being, to improve the way that we relate to each other, the way we live and music and sound are great tools to achieve that.”

From sound installations, immersive audio experiences, audio-visual work and experimental live performances, Innovation in Sound showcases Bristol’s young artists at the forefront of sonic experimentation.
