The Sonic Flock

The art project that takes intimacy to a whole new level.

Overview

Have you ever been at a gig with an awkwardly small number of audience members? Felt like they were just playing for you? Well, if this was a feeling you enjoyed, you're going to love what the Click Clack Project has lined up. Over the first two days of the festival, Federation Square will be littered with a series of small black teepees, and inside of each, an artist will be performing to an enthralled audience of one.

While admittedly terrifying — oh god, what facial expression am I making / how are they maintaining eye contact with me while playing the flute?* — it also sounds a little amazing. Check it out on Saturday for Shadow Tales performed by the Footscray Community Arts Centre, or head down on Sunday if Japanese sound art is more your thing.

*We really can't guarantee anyone will be playing the flute.
