No matter what genre makes your soul dance, this exhibition is a one-way ticket to a world where melodies rule and emotions run wild.
Picture this: you're on a sonic adventure through time, surrounded by the stories of legends like Elton John and the enchanting singer-songwriter Anne-Marie. But it's not just about hearing their tales – it's about feeling the music in your bones and understanding how it shapes our very existence. Interactive installations and mind-bending gadgets will blow your mind, as you dive deep into the mesmerizing web of music's influence on our minds, hearts, and well-being.
Hold tight as the rhythm of time guides you through an unprecedented experience. Turn It Up doesn't just keep it real in the present – it pushes the boundaries of music creation into the future. Imagine a symphony where artificial intelligence (AI) jams alongside the latest tech innovations, paving the way for a new era of musical expression that knows no bounds.
Leading this epic voyage is the maestro of the moment, Steven Leech, who's all about revealing the universal power of music. "We are excited to bring Turn It Up to London and bring to life the mystery of music and the incredible ways that it impacts all aspects of our lives," Leech proclaims, reminding us that the art of making music is a gift meant for everyone to unwrap.
Right at the heart of the action, the Musical Playground beckons – an auditory wonderland where rhythm, melody, and harmony collide, calling out to both newcomers and seasoned pros. Think of it as a playground of sound, where you can experiment with Musical Building Blocks that are like melodic LEGO pieces, letting you create a symphonic masterpiece that's uniquely you.
When the spotlight shifts to the stage of musical treasures, prepare to be dazzled by artifacts that bridge generations of musical evolution. Among them, the MiMU gloves radiate, bewitching tech-wear donned by luminaries like Ariana Grande and Kris Halpin. These gloves wield digital magic, conjuring electronic symphonies with the flick of a wrist and blurring the lines between artist and instrument.
But the show's not over yet – the Robo-recorder steps up, a testament to human resilience and innovation. Crafted by musician Liza Bec, this ingenious creation overcomes the odds, using MIDI technology to create music and triumphing over the challenges of a rare epilepsy condition with unyielding spirit.
And then, brace yourself for the AI takeover as Haille, the AI virtuoso from Georgia Institute of Technology, steps onto the stage, seamlessly jamming alongside human musicians. It's a mind-bending display of human creativity merging with cutting-edge technology, pushing the boundaries of what's possible. And don't miss Headspace, the virtual instrument brought to life by Rolf Gelhar and Clarence Adoo. This musical marvel responds to your every head movement and breath, proving that nothing can hold back the power of human determination.
Dr. Emily Scott Dearing, the Guest Curator, adds her own touch to the mix, emphasizing the all-encompassing and awe-inspiring force of music.
