How do music and sound affect your sleep? Do we fall asleep faster with music? Do we listen while sleeping? Does the music enter our dreams? You can ask yourself such questions in this sleep concert. The »Lullabyte Sleep Concert« is a night of live music for listening, slumbering, and dreaming. From 10 pm to 7 am, Alice Eldridge and Kirsten Reese create soundscapes composed of nature recordings, electronic textures, and live-generated sounds. At the end of the concert night, we will have the opportunity to reflect and exchange thoughts and experiences over breakfast.
The Lullabyte research network initiated this concert to seek creative inspiration. The interdisciplinary research groups explore the relationship between music and sleep scientifically across the fields of musicology, neuroscience, psychology, and computer science.
The concert is presented as part of the MSCA doctoral network Lullabyte in collaboration with the Ernst von Siemens endowed Professorship for New Music at the Freie Universität Berlin directed by Miriam Akkermann. It is organised in collaboration with Heroines of Sound Festival.
