Bricks cast with embedded audio electronics allow the ubiquitous building module to function as a sound object. The performance features a selection of bricks from a system being developed to construct full-scale sonically active architectural environments. Made from a range of materials—concrete, plaster, and silicone—each brick expresses its unique sonic signature when activated by a performer or stacked upon another, resulting in physical feedback.
