Greek philosopher Plato (428 BCE – 347 BCE) provides the inspiration for this inventive installation combining images with sound.

Artist Guillaume Marmin and musician Philippe Gordiani were drawn to one of Plato’s theories that each planet has its own tone and which divided the entire planetary system into a different octave — in effect, the universe having its own musical score.

The duo has created a dark space with a wall that is perforated with a pattern of 300 holes. Light shines through each of them via a video projector placed in the rear and as the space fills with smoke shapes are formed within a stunning cosmic void.

Admission is free. For more information, call (412) 471-5605.
