MUO is an immersive audiovisual installation by Lomond Campbell which makes use of muon detectors, sensing harmless radiation in the atmosphere. This radiation is created by cosmic rays, which in turn are the result of powerful nuclear events such as black holes, stars exploding and galaxies colliding. These intergalactic events will literally shape the soundscape, light and visuals in real time, inviting the audience to contemplate the invisible force of the surrounding cosmos and the fragility of our own existence here on Earth. This unique showcase is presented in partnership with Sonica and the University of Glasgow.
“He’s a bit of a genius I think. Based up in the highlands of Scotland…maker of machines, music and art” Mary Anne Hobbs, BBC 6 Music
“Juxtaposes a vibrant experimental beat with glacial waves of noise to gorgeous effect” The Quietus
“Both startlingly minimalist and subtly beautiful, a transcendent floating reverie” Under The Radar
