Acoustic Encounters

Creators Sounding Bodies
Duration 60 min

ASMR to the max, de ultimate listening experience 

Supposedly, we are more connected than ever, are presented with more choices than we can possibly fathom, and experience more freedom. At the same time we’ve never been this lonely, and our choices are increasingly meddled by algorithms that are growing smarter and smarter. The possibility of connecting with the other is being kept in check further and further. 

In a world overloaded with visual stimuli, standing firm becomes more taxing by the day. We sometimes forget what being a good listener can accomplish. If you remove everything and  concentrate on actual sound, a whole new world can open up right in front of you. With Acoustic Encounters, Sounding Bodies seeks out the ultimate listening experience.  

Sound, like touch, is very direct. So what happens exactly when we connect the touching and the listening? How does it feel to be actually touched by sound, with no barriers between you and a tone? Listening with your whole body, so to speak. ASMR to the max. With their latest project Acoustic Encounters Sounding Bodies takes it one step further to eliminate all the noise between visitor and the aural experience. 

Sounding Bodies uses music to help people connect with themselves and others. Music can offer comfort and recognition while inspiring a different approach to the world around us. In this way, this company uses artistry to create social meaning and develop broader social value.

Sounding Bodies radically breaks with the world of hard and big opposites. Instead, it makes impact with soft activism, empathy and affection. 'We don't know the answers to the complex issues of our time, but we can initiate the encounter. In doing so, we shift the focus from distraction to attention, from superficiality to depth and from fragmentation to concentration.'
