SUMMARY:Revivification
DESCRIPTION:Revivification is an extraordinary immersive exhibition combining sound and cutting-edge biological innovation to bring to life the musical genius of a deceased composer. \nFour years in the making\, Revivification delivers a historic first: the in-vitro (external) ‘brain’ of the late composer Alvin Lucier (1931-2021) creating a new work in real time\, as a live performance over the duration of the exhibition. \nIt is developed by artists Guy Ben-Ary\, Nathan Thompson and Matt Gingold with neuroscientist Stuart Hodgetts based at the University of Western Australia (UWA)\, who have individually spent 25 years pushing boundaries in the biological arts. \nThe physical realisation of Revivification began in 2020 when Alvin Lucier donated his blood for the project. His blood was sent to Harvard Medical School where his white blood cells were reprogrammed into stem cells – the fundamental building blocks of Revivification\, using a process called Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell (IPSC) technology. Then\, the Revivification Team transformed (differentiated) Lucier’s stem cells into cerebral organoids: three-dimensional structures that resemble a developing human brain. \nAlvin Lucier stood among the giants of 20th-century experimental music. He transformed how we think about composition by shifting focus from traditional musical elements to the physical properties of sound itself. His work with brain waves\, echolocation\, and room acoustics blurred the lines between music\, science\, and art – an approach that spoke to the artists and researchers at UWA. \nAt the heart of the installation stands a sculptural object that encapsulates the incubator housing Lucier’s ‘in-vitro brain’\, living outside\, and beyond his body (the term ‘in-vitro’ comes from the Latin for ‘in glass’). \nLining the walls are 20 large\, curved brass plates that are both sculptural and the source of the immersive sound environment. Each of the plates is directly connected to the neural activity of Lucier’s brain organoid. As the ‘in-vitro brains” signals pulse through transducers and actuators\, they strike the brass\, creating complex\, sustained resonances that fill the space with sound.

SUMMARY:Sun Returns: Unfold
DESCRIPTION:Set your alarm clock for a meditative listening session set against the backdrop of the sunrise!\nIn partnership with Tone List\, Boola Bardip presents an experimental morning concert\, set against the backdrop of the rising sun\, perched in the highest reaches of our eastern terrace. \nStart your day early with a coffee in hand\, take a moment to reflect\, and watch Boorloo’s east metropolitan area light up from the base of the hills to the steps of the Museum\, scored by our special guests – Unfold. \nUnfold\, two of Boorloo’s most seasoned artists in the world of contemporary art music\, create surprisingly intimate and beautiful music from sounds often heard in more abstract settings. In this longform sunrise set\, they will patiently explore melody\, space and texture using vibraphone\, re-tuned guitars\, found objects\, and a range of other instruments. \nThe Level 3 terrace nook (indoors\, warm\, and undercover) transforms into a serene performance space for this 90-minute experience. \n\n\n\nThis event is sponsored by Pound Coffee \nwho have made a custom roast for the Audible Edge festival \n\n  \n\n\n\nAs Unfold\, Alice Humphries and Thea Rossen explore concepts of space and restraint in a semi-improvised setting. Using found sounds\, keyboards\, electric guitar\, and percussion\, they seek to build sonic landscapes that grow from simple gestures and find beauty in unusual timbral combinations and haunting melodies that rise out of lush textures. Their debut album Glass Heart was released on Tone List records in 2023.

SUMMARY:Echoes + Liquid Architecture pres. SIPANINGKAH (ID)
DESCRIPTION:SIPANINGKAH (ID) + Bad Whip + Nathan Thompson + yumyab & bleu + DJ Wayang@ The Bird [Northbridge\, Boorloo/Perth]Saturday 21st June 2025\nHearts of Darkness [HxD] and Liquid Architecture [LA] are proud to co-present a one-night-only performance by Sipaningkah\, the performance alias of Aldo Ahmad — an emerging force in Southeast Asia’s experimental music scene.\nA Jakarta-based improviser\, sound artist\, and instrument builder from Minangkabau heritage\, Sipaningkah creates dense\, trance-like sonic worlds that bridge tradition and invention. Trained in percussion and composition at leading Indonesian institutions\, Ahmad is also a key organiser within DIY and experimental scenes in Sumatra and Java. His work spans electroacoustic composition\, sound installations\, theatre and film scores\, and community-led music initiatives — including Pasamoan Art Initiated and Kombo Improvisation Lab.\nHis recent release 𝘓𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘬𝘢𝘩 𝘚𝘶𝘳𝘶𝘪𝘬 fuses folk textures with avant-noise structures\, invoking both ancestral rhythm and speculative sound design. The result is raw\, immersive\, and evocative — a music that pulses between histories and futures.\nThis event marks the Perth debut of Sipaningkah\, and the first local collaboration between LA and HxD’ exploratory imprint Echoes. Expect a night of resonant textures\, rhythmic complexity\, and deep listening — alongside a very special selection of cutting edge experimental and exploratory artists\n Limited capacity — don’t miss this.\n~~~\n$25 OTD / $20 Pre-sales available from linktr.ee/heartsofdarkness
