”Brainwash”, the sound installation of composer Sami Klemola, in gallery Huuto in Viiskulma.
The interactive installation, composed of electronic sounds and recycled showers, allows the gallery visitors to influence the soundscape resonating in the gallery space. The installation explores the boundaries of surrealism, where the habitual conventions of everyday life no longer apply. Klemola promises that every visitor’s brain will be washed by the resonance of sound, and afterwards the world may sound, and seem, a little different.
Sami Klemola is a composer living and working in Helsinki. He has been studying composing and electronic music in Sibelius-Academy, Amsterdam conservatory and IRCAM in Paris. Brainwash is his first sound installation.
