Wave Farm welcomes two new residents this month:
Zach Poff + N.B. Aldrich (June 9-22, 2013)
Poff and Aldrich's project will pursue emergent phenomenon in the Wave Farm’s hidden soundscape, translating atmospheric radio, underwater sound, and tiny natural vibrations into outdoor sculptures that encourage listeners to consider the unexpected results of our relationships with each other and our environment.
