Luminous Acoustics - Exploring the Symbiosis of Light and Sound

Luminous Acoustics explores the symbiosis of Light and Sound therapy in response to increased levels of anxiety, depression and loneliness post pandemic and on a daily basis, as well as seasonal mental health issues, to create an experience that will ultimately benefit society. The program aims to use as little energy as possible during the day and revert to sustainable methods of energy use during the night. During the day, natural light and natural sound inhabit the space and during the night, artificial light and sound will illuminate the space.

The industrial originality, story and exhibition of the given site: London Canal Museum, located on 12/13 New Wharf Road, London N1 9RT, will be partially maintained and co-exist with the proposed experience. The audience that will be addressed are young adults (+18) and adults suffering from a mental health problem or facing momentums of stress or loneliness. Additionally, regular museum visitors will have the opportunity to benefit from a relaxing and mind-calming experience while looking at the exhibition, which may lead to increased profits for the museum.
