About Stavanger2008
Sonic benches by the sea
Sonic Vista consists of a series of 10 unique, hand-made public benches, especially adapted to incorporate sound and visual art. Two of these will be placed at a lighthouse. The Sonic Vista benches have been designed as a coproduction between Nuproductions and British musician/designer Mil Stricevic. The benches are developed and hand-made in cooperation with the Randaberg company Ranso AS. They are one hundred per cent environmentally friendly and made from quality timber from Rogaland.
Geir Jenssen/Biosphere has made the sound-track "Snurp 1937" for the Utsira lighthouse.
David Toop has composed the sound-track for the Eigerøy lighthouse.
This is a cooperation with the Stavanger2008 project: A World of Sound.
The benches are inaugurated at the Utsira lighthouse on 3 May at 1 p.m., and will remain on location until the end of February 2009.
