With Andras

This month’s show features sound and music from the Powerhouse Museum archives. Diving into their collection of over 500,00 objects, i’ve pulled together samples, live performances, radio plays, soundtracks, and degraded tape renditions of popular music. From an automaton bird cage, an art deco clock, toy robots, and tuning forks to steams engines, Sounding the Collection is a sonic archive from the Powerhouse that brings objects sitting silent in the collection to audition. Designed to breathe life back into objects, this archive is part of range of projects that activates the museum's collection of material culture. Massive thanks to Mara, Cara and Callum for giving me the keys to the museum.
