Key visual for “Feel the Sound”

This immersive exhibition, in which visitors are treated to new ways of feeling and experiencing sound, captivated many visitors during its original run at the Barbican Centre in London. This presentation at MoN Takanawa marks its first run in Japan. Through a diverse range of installations combining sound, vibration, music and technology, it offers a new experience of ‘feeling sound’ with the whole body, rather than only hearing it with the ears.
