From heartbeats to brainwaves, economic cycles to cosmic orbits, oscillations can be found everywhere. These seven stories bring Dakota Feirer, Alexandra Spence, Jinghua Qian, John Jacobs and Jane Curtis, Miyuki Jokiranta, Omar Musa and Sally Olds into Powerhouse’s Collection of over 500,000 objects to explore the stories behind them.

Ranging from the poetic to the musical, the journalistic to the personal, these audio works offer stories, interpretations and investigations, bringing new light and sound to the Powerhouse’s Collection.

Presented by Jon Tjhia and sound design by Erin Hyde (Sig Nu Gris).
