Thresholds

‘Thresholds’ is an immersive, multichannel sound and video installation commissioned by the Institute for Sound and Music Berlin for the ISM Hexadome. The work creates a transsensorial space for storytelling on topics of territory, recognition and memory. Together musician Lara
Sarkissian and artist Jemma Woolmore craft an immersive experience from aural and physical architectures; playing with disorientation and transformation. The hexadome’s six screens become a landscape to be navigated and divided, creating symbolic borders that are enforced, blurred or dissolved throughout the work.

Developed by the Institute for Sound & Music in collaboration with Pfadfinderei and ZKM | Center for Art and Media, the ISM Hexadome was an immersive exhibition fusing art with technology across a 50 channel surround sound system and 6 projection screens.
