SoundLab Cultural Alchemy


The subtitle for this project was “experiments for the electrotectural now.” SoundLab was a nomadic, multimedia installation and performance platform. Over a decade, artists Beth Coleman and Howard Goldkrand created SoundLabs in diverse sites across New York City and internationally. The SoundLab is a modular mobile sculptural form that addresses, space, place, and time among its formats. The media for a SoundLab installation include electronic music, experimental and nonpermissional urban sites, visual installation, computing culture, and numerous participants.
