Resonance: About the Series

Hear a musical instrument made from penguin bones. Learn how remixed sound samples can form the backdrop for a lounge act. Discover songs composed from the frequencies of starlight.

Explore distant realms of musical possibility with Resonance, an evening series at the Exploratorium. Contemporary musicians and sound artists will perform new works and discuss their ideas, techniques, and inspirations with Exploratorium host Nicole Minor.

Resonance performances are held in the Exploratorium’s Kanbar Forum, and enlivened by its state-of-the-art, 72-channel Meyer Sound Constellation sound system, providing the audience with an intimate experience of each event’s sonic details.
