As part of the public programs for the exhibition Olafur Eliasson: Your Curious Journey, “wrong.orchestra,” a project by wrong.institute and et alt, supported by Goethe-Institut Philippinen, in collaboration with designer Carl Jan Cruz and the Music Production Program of Benilde, will bring together practitioners across various media to create a performance that explore the immersive experience of sound, both human-made and more-than-human, and our responses to them.

In “System: After Olafur Eliasson,” wrong.orchestra views adaptation as a generative force and the only recourse within our present environmental and technological states. Completely improvised, each sound is formed and built upon by another, requiring each player to sense and listen. As it unfolds, the performance becomes a collective response to choice and choicelessness. When control is seized and the players become mutable, will the symphony continue? How long can adaptation sustain a system that keeps taking choices away?
