“We hear the rain not through silent falling water but in the many translations delivered by objects that the rain encounters” – D.G. Haskel

Sound Art Brighton are proud to announce Listen Club#15: Acoustic Light. Please come join sound artist and researcher Julian Weaver, playing a range of works exploring rain.

We often listen to rain as it strikes the world around us, natural objects such as trees, plants, ground, water and also, but perhaps less so, the coverings we use for protection against it; umbrellas, bus stops, roofs, windows, tarmac. Rain then can be considered as an acoustic light that falls on us and the surrounding environment, describing it for any sensing life form.
