World-renowned composer Tod Machover and architect/designer Neri Oxman, both from the MIT Media Lab, in collaboration with Buddhist monk Tenzin Prriyadarshi, Director of the Dalai Lama Center for Ethics and Transformative Values du MIT, invite the public into fascinating and intimate vocal experiences, to explore the relationship between human physiology-chemical phenomena in both body and sound vibrations, via unique design elements.
From 28 March to 29 September 2014, Vocal Vibrations, an original installation and design, invites the public to discover the relationship between sound vibrations stimulated by voice and their effects on human physiology, with sensory, unique and exceptional experience. This experience has been realized in collaboration with The Venerable Tenzin Priyadarshi, Buddhist monk, director of the Dalai Lama Center for Ethics and Transformative Values at MIT, the bold-design studio, Professor Craig Carter of MIT, Situ Fabrication, Stratasys, and a team composed of researchers from MIT Elly Jessop, Rebecca Kleinberger, Charles Holbrow and Al Grodzinsky.
