All Around You

With regular events throughout the autumn and into winter, All Around You is a season of sound performances, installations, talks, workshops and film events, featuring artists and musicians who utilise and respond to space and surroundings.

All Around You brings together some of the most respected international practitioners of sound art, locally based sonic adventurers and a group of Bristol venues and groups, with the aim of pushing deeper sonic experimentalism and awareness of the sounds of human surroundings.  Presenting a broad range of activities and performances, the season also provides a context for discussion and learning with talks and workshops.
