Induction Dynamics® SolidDrive® is a powerful hidden sound transducer that transmits acoustical energy through almost any solid surface. The entire surface becomes a speaker delivering high-quality sound and the frequency response of conventional diaphragm speakers. SolidDrive® provides a distinct advance for audio systems used in home theater systems, distributed audio, and other high-performance audio applications. SolidDrive® works with rigid surfaces that include glass, drywall, granite, metal, wood, ceramics, laminates and composites. Because the SolidDrive® utilizes materials already existing in a room, it's ideal for installed home audio, commercial audio, or a home theater sound system anywhere an invisible sound source is needed.
They also have passive EQ for different materials
]]>Ever since Bach first showed that the one keyboard could play music in 24 different keys, and redefined tonality in the process, music has been driven ahead by experimenters. The Sound Barrier is an opportunity to explore and celebrate some of the really daring and fascinating innovation that has taken place in music over the past hundred years and that continues to take place now every day, everywhere.

From vibrational energy and utopian impulses to alien abduction, this immersive performance draws together dance, sound, set design and fashion to envelop audiences into an otherworldly, transformative experience.
Choreographers Brooke Stamp and Phillip Adams construct a kinetic space where time is elastic; driven by sublime, generative sound composed and performed by Garth Paine. In the second half - Adams' Tomorrow - some members of the audience are asked to participate to become part of the installation and performance, creating an architectural abduction experience.
WARNING: This performance contains full nudity and immersive sound effects.

Conversation Prelude - rendered version from Garth Paine on Vimeo.
The idea for this music arises from a number of visits to Bundanon in Australia, where I undertook explorations in engaging in conversations with the landscape. These conversations took several forms: ambisonic recordings of the natural environment; piano wire fixed between trees to record the sounds generated by the movement of the tree trunks in the wind (tightening and loosening the tension of the wires) and through bowing and striking the wires; and vocalisations recorded as improvised conversations with the land and the birds. These materials come together here as a prelude to an ongoing inquiry into the ways in which we converse with nature on a daily basis. And I'm playing a flute as one example of my part of the conversation

And All Things Return to Nature Tomorrow
Phillip Adams BalletLab
Overview
WORLD PREMIERE SEASON
From vibrational energy and utopian impulses to alien abduction, this immersive performance draws together dance, sound, set design and fashion to envelop audiences into an otherworldly, transformative experience.
Choreographers Brooke Stamp and Phillip Adams construct a kinetic space where time is elastic; driven by sublime, generative sound composed by Garth Paine. In the second half - Adams' Tomorrow - some members of the audience are asked to participate to become part of the installation and performance, creating an architectural abduction experience.
Building on Adams’ passion for collaboration across art forms, the performance features a live electronic score by Garth Paine, set design from architect Matthew Bird, clothing and design by Melbourne fashion designer Susan Dimasi from Materialbyproduct, and lighting design and effects by Robin Fox. Each choreographer will perform in their own piece alongside dancers Deanne Butterworth, Rennie McDougall and Matthew Day.
A participant in the L’Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival Cultural Program.
Phillip Adams BalletLab is assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council, its Arts Funding and Advisory Body. This project has also been supported by Arts Victoria, The Ian Potter Foundation, The Angior Family Foundation, the Besen Family Foundation and Ken.
WARNING: This performance contains full nudity and immersive sound effects.
