Drone Day: Sound Bath is a special edition of the annual celebration of drone, community and experimental sounds. Taking place at an indoor pool, audience members are invited to bathe communally in sound, water and sweat. Swim in the pool, sweat in the sauna, or bask under the sunroof while listening deeply to sustained tones and encompassing drones by featured artists L CON, Yolande Laroche and 16:9 ratio.
An annual drone day tradition, the group drone will conclude the program. Bring a sound-maker or warm up your lungs to hum along to the participatory group sounding.
