sonic bed

Kaffe Matthews’ “Sonic Bed_London” installation consists of a bed equipped with built-in loudspeakers; when installation visitors lie down on it, an endlessly changing music moves and vibrates up and down and around your body. Due to their frequency and intensity, these sounds are perceived not only with the ears but also with the entire body in what is a very pleasant experience. The installation has already been exhibited several times and has proven to be a popular attraction with young and old alike since it harmoniously appeals to several different dimensions of human life. The choice of what is actually a rather intimate object used in everyday life as well as the proximity of other installation visitors opens up a strong social component. On the other hand, the installation also makes it possible to experience sound in a new way and thereby provides access to a new auditory dimension.
