Photos from a recent workshop, Vibrational Architectures, hosted by @MSUZagreb as part of the exhibit #Vibraception by Jan St. Werner of @MoM_official. The workshop, for architecture and art students, featured talks by Jan, Brett Mommersteeg, Nikola Bojić, and Gascia Ouzounian...
It explored the possibilities of a vibrational architecture to reorient architectural imaginaries. Students created absolutely brilliant design responses which we will share on the SONCITIES website and future publications soon!
Thanks to Jan and Ela Domitrovic for these photos.
It has been a pleasure and honour for us to collaborate with Jan St. Werner from @MoM_official on commissioning Vibraceptional Plate. This participatory artwork is currently on exhibit at @MSUZagreb, as part of Vibraception, curated by Ana Škegro.

A soundtrack by Gerard Gormley transplants other sounds into the site, acting as a sonic crossroads. Silent Room V.04 is a call to attune to the city of the future as a dwelling-place centred around human well-being...
