Dark Museum - When Light Disappeared — Ylöjärven museo, Ylöjärvi

Ylöjärvi Museum hosts an autumn evening event where the museum grounds and buildings transform into a resonant soundscape. You can wander at your own pace and linger by the sounds for as long as you wish.

Saxophonist Mari Martikainen from the Aavakaiku collective and sound artist Turkka Vuorinen present freely improvised sound art pieces on the grounds. Storyteller Irja Lehtonen guides listeners back to the time before electric light - what was life like when darkness was a natural part of everyday existence?

Aavakaiku:
Mari Martikainen - saxophones, flutes, effects
Turkka Vuorinen - sound design, electronics
