INFRActures
Transcending the Sensory Perceptible
INFRActures is an exhibition project transcending the sensory perceptible at the convergences of sound art and architecture. Artists Edwin van der Heide, Cevdet Erek, mxHz.org and STEALTH.[u]ltd have been commissioned to create four new works which make tangible what is not registered by our senses within an urban environment, such as ultra- and infra-sonics, and different perceptions of time and spatiality. Cities as Rotterdam and Istanbul make up the source material and points of departure for the installations, which are interactive in character and allow for a participative and layered audiovisual experience.

Many Rotterdam architects tend to leave the city due to a shortage of local projects. Rotterdam profiles itself as a city of architecture but how does this image chime with everyday reality? Artist laurie halsey brown organizes during the finissage weekend of INFRActures a bus tour through the city that includes an onboard experimental documentary of local architects discussing the validity of the city’s slogan “The City of Architecture”, with stops at several sites built by local architects and access to a public intervention project placed throughout the city. The tour begins and ends at V2_
