Join us for a two-day BEAST event pursuing radical directions in synthetic sound and spatialisation with featured composers Rashad Becker and Ryu Hankil.

Exploring the edges of sonic fiction, nonlinear temporality, and hyperreal synthetic sound, the concerts will bring together Becker’s uncanny, intricately textured sonic dramaturgies with Hankil’s media-archaeological explorations of abandoned objects. The programme invites audiences into a space of speculative listening and imaginative world-building.

Each concert is presented on the BEAST system: a large scale immersive loudspeaker array in the Elgar Concert Hall, featuring over 60 loudspeakers across three floors.
