FLIGHT is a unique sound installation experience created by the British artist team DARKFIELD, using ‘sound’ as a core element, fusing art and technology. It is a new sound art installation experience set in an all-black container, 1:1: the seats, luggage racks, and small tables are the same as any other flight you have ever taken. It makes you forget the border between reality and virtual.
With the headphones on, the cabin then goes into complete darkness for the flight – and from that moment on, you enter an amazing sound journey constructed from ultra-fidelity sound. The constant vibrations under your feet, the roar in your ears and the ambience are enough to convince you that the plane is ready to take off. Once the plane is “in the air”, the silence in the cabin lingers for just a moment, replaced by the sound of the food trolley going back and forth, the rapid footsteps of the stewardesses and the anxious cries of the baby. …… Following the elaborate sound design, a whole new parallel A new parallel world unfolds around your ears.
Surrounded by 360 degree sound and ultra-realistic sound design it is immersive and felt from the dimension of sound. Perhaps in another latitude this sound is happening. The plane is also crashing and the headphones connect the two worlds.
