We are a company that draws on creative use of Sound, Digital Technology, Immersive Installation, Site-Specifics and Concept to make art, politics and play happen where it matters.
A collaborative team of experts that work with artist Thor McIntyre-Burnie to develop, experiment and create things none of us can create alone.
“Sound has an incredible ability to play with it’s context and it’s this relationship between the intangible and physical realm’s that really fascinates me. – It can change how a space functions, inject life into objects or carry a person in thin-air, it exists in time & perception. And so what we do is create interventions and ’scenarios’ that invite people to explore, participate and become the active agents that complete the circle.”

Our audiences are the active agents that bring the work to life.
