An interactive, audio-based exhibit for cultivating altered states of consciousness

Calling all curious minds, music nerds, science enthusiasts, neurohackers, magicians, and explorers of consciousness.

After 10 sold-out shows across the world, and numerous festival appearances, the Museum of Consciousness returns to its home at the University of Oxford. This intimate and innovative
exhibition will feature five 40-minute sound experiments over five hours, performed by both renowned international and local audio wizards.

Featured artists include Tritha, an Indian classical contemporary singer; David Glowacki, a cross-disciplinary researcher, artist, and author whose interests span computer science, aesthetics and spirituality; Scott Beibin, an inventor, artist and environmental activist; BitterSuite, who rethink music composition and reimagine concerts where you don’t just listen to the music – you taste it, smell it and feel it; and Raffaella Fryer-Moreira, a multimedia anthropologist and experimental researcher working with indigenous communities in Brazil.

The founder of The Museum of Consciousness, Carl Hayden Smith, will introduce the Museum, its aims, objectives, history and trajectory.

Featuring Bittersuite’s Bodies Tilted

Let yourself and your senses be transported with a new score designed to carry your imagination. Five volunteer audience members will be immersed within an excerpt of their most recent intimate multi-sensory work: Bodies Tilted.

Commissioned and supported by the Cultural Programme at Oxford University, Bittersuite’s latest work in development explores with Oxford academics how audiences can have powerful collective consciousness and deep listening experiences.

TICKETS AVAILABLE SOON. STAY TUNED FOR DETAILS
