A short film based on the work of choreographer Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker.

Guided by the Jules Verne novel “Voyage au centre de la Terre”, four friends set out to explore Snaefellsjökul Volcano in Iceland. However, as they journeyed through the country recording sounds, they found themselves having a series of profound and transformative experiences that exceeded their original expectations. The result of their trip is an immersive audio-visual narrative titled “Journey to the Center of the Sound,” which not only guides the audience through diverse Icelandic landscapes, but also invites them to embark on their own sensory journey.

Scientists mapping the universe have recently observed baryon acoustic oscillations fossilised within the cosmos. These are the scars of what happened 380,000 years after the Big Bang, before the galaxies were born; remains of a far-distant past that make up the very matter that forms both you and me, and the humble coffee pot.
