Our Gallery will launch its opening with a prototype audiovisual installation by the German-based sound artist Hendrik Klatte

Mucus

In his audiovisual project Mucus, Hendrik Klatte explores the speculative possibility of interspecies communication. Through the use of laboratory software, he translates an organic process into sound, raising questions about cognition and emergence.
Drawing on timelapse photography, biolab work, computerized image analysis and modular sound synthesis, the sound installation challenges the phenomenological issue derived from Thomas Nagel‘s line of thought: What is it like to be slime?
