Musik med hela kroppen
From MegaMind, Tekniska Museet, Stockholm Sweden
“Music with your whole body. (Musik med hela kroppen)
It’s a musical instrument and a sculpture. With it, you can make music that you can hear, feel and see. Use your creativity to combine the sounds into music. If you like, you can do this in a group too. Developed in cooperation with Håkan Lidbo and with the support of the Swedish National Post and Telecom Agency.” More about MegaMind.
In 2016 Tekniska Museet and “Music with your whole body” won the Mariano Gago Ecsite Strategic Partnership award to encourage creative and impactful work within the informal science education sector. “This project struck a chord with the Jury: it is an inspiring example of co-creation for the science engagement community.”
BigBeat
Big Beat is probably the largest drum machine in the World. It’s also some sort of choreographic machine, a place for social meetings and a game. Hold buttons to create rhythms. Find the tones hidden at certain beats and move to the next level.
