    paper Music Composition and Sound Design for an art exhibition 👩‍🎨

    I was invited to create a soundscape for an art exhibition of my friend and visual artist Alyona Movko-Mägi. Sonically my goal was to create experience of marsh (SOO) in the gallery in the centre of Tallinn, which teleported you away to the nature. I have recorded, composed and arranged music, designed sound effects and built a system of dimensional sound according to room’s acoustic features. The exhibition was on for 5 months and the feedback on sound has been amazing.
