Glasshouse-MusicTown

CinemaExhibitionMusic

Glass House is a sound installation by the artist Sven Anderson, produced within a public art commission with Dublin City Council as part of MusicTown Festival.

It responds to films being screened in the 'Light House' cinema by amplifying subtle traces of their soundtracks outside of the cinema in Smithfield Plaza. The sound emerges from the lighting braziers that tower over the plaza.

The title of the piece alludes to John Cage's analogy equating experimental music to glass architecture, where one does not see the surface (or hear the music) but instead somehow looks (or listens) through it.
