Sound artist ASUNA uses 100 battery-powered analogue keyboards to create waves of overlapping sound in the Clore Studio.

The instruments sit in concentric circles, each one playing a single note to produce an electronic chorus in this site-specific listening experience.

This event is part of MODE 2019, curated by Laurel Halo.
