Sound has commissioned four unique soundscapes to complement the fountains outside Marischal College in Aberdeen.
Each piece is inspired in a different way by the movement, the rhythm, the sound and the play of light on the water.
The audience can listen to the audio via their own mobile devices near the fountains outside the Marischal College (using the locative audio player Sonicmaps). The pieces are 10 to 15 min long.
Commissioned artists: Pippa Murphy, Ross Whyte, Bea Dawkins and Silent Chaos.
