The departing point is the sound of our dreams transformed into a sound installation. We approach the dream as if it was a vehicle creating images and symbols that become our sound inspiration. The sound choices are in reference to the conscious/unconscious relationship we have towards the atmosphere or emotion of a dream.
Dreams possess characteristic elements such as the sudden escaping of our control, spontaneity, the existence of a nocturne atmosphere, functioning as an outlet for the repressed impulses of the day. We closely search for sounds that fit in this spectrum and use these elements to create a working field for constructing the music and
composition.
DIVE is a project with percussion, voice and electronica, performed in musea or exposition spaces, with the public visiting the exhibition halls with headphones. The musicians play live in the building, a bit hidden, and the audience hears them through headphones while they visit the exposition. In this way the project proposes an intimate and intriguing way of exploring the exposition, giving a unique frame that stimulates each one's imagination.
The audience’s disposition is based on the idea of a network connecting each person by what they experience.
DIVE has performed at
Museum M Leuven (2019)
Musée des Sciences Naturelles Brussels (2020)
Design Museum Brussels (2021)
Musée des Beaux Arts Charleroi (2022).
