Head to the Sydney Observatory for performances and star gazing as a part of Sydney WorldPride.
Join Alice Motion and Alexis Weaver for an experiment in collective sound and become a part of the Atomic Choir to create an album of some of science’s greatest hits. Create rhythms for reactions, basslines for the Big Bang and melodies for molecules in an immersive experience merging sound, music, and science.
Alice Motion is a chemist and science communicator who leads the SCOPE (Science Communication, Outreach, Participation and Education) Research Group at the School of Chemistry, University of Sydney. Alice’s interdisciplinary research aims to connect people with science. Alice is an innovator in citizen science and outreach and is part of the Open Source Malaria (OSM) consortium.
Alexis Weaver is an electroacoustic composer and casual lecturer at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. Her aim is to bring a new awareness of the beauty of sound to a wider audience. Alexis is also a member of the Nanosonic Stories team at the University of Sydney Nano Institute, and she is very curious about the role sound can play in learning about science.
Emily Parsons-Lord is an emerging cross-disciplinary artist whose practice is informed by research and critical dialogue with materials and climate science, through investigation into air, both materially and culturally.
Please note that while this is a free event bookings are essential.
Visitors using wheelchairs are able to access Sydney Observatory gardens, ground floor exhibitions and the East Dome telescope. There is no wheelchair access to the North and South telescope domes due to narrow and steep staircases in the heritage-listed buildings. An outdoor telescope can be installed by prior arrangement. Toilets are located at the rear of the building and can be accessed from the grounds. There is a toilet which can accommodate a wheelchair.
This event is free but registration essential as venue capacity is 200pax.
