Modelo62 hosts a new edition of this festival featuring performances that test, blur and playfully transgress the boundaries of what music can be. The programme encourages the audience and the artists to experience ‘sound’ not merely as a concert, but as a physical, social and shared experience.
When does sound become music? Spend these days at the boundary with us, to explore the threshold between sound and non-sound, between music and everything else.
