About the project
RIPPLES is a music-led immersive experience that invites participants into a profound exploration of sound, art, and philosophy. Each edition builds a transformative narrative around a central theme, brought to life through the collaboration of visionary artists, musicians, and performers.
For RIPPLES 3, the theme If Plants Could Talk offered a poetic exploration of nature’s hidden language. Through soundscapes, visuals, and movement, this edition brought the silent world of plants to life, creating a dialogue between humanity and the natural world.
At its heart was an immersive soundscape, performed live, that transformed the venue into a living, breathing ecosystem. By blending natural sounds with layered compositions, the experience connected participants to the unseen rhythms of plant life. A groundbreaking visual installation translated biofeedback data from live plants into mesmerizing light patterns and dynamic visuals, allowing the audience to witness plants "speaking" in their unique, non-verbal language.
The performing artists for this edition included Oscar Jerome, Anan Ya’ari, Nathan Badu, Diana Dzhabbar, Peter Somuah, Emmanuel Arfiyie, and Aditya, whose live performances infused the experience with vitality and emotion. The visual art was crafted by Ward Strootman, Studio Smink, Pepijn Vrielink, and Juno Brown, creating a sensory dialogue between technology and nature.
As the founder, artistic director, and performer, Bruno curated and led this transformative experience. By collaborating with sound designers, environmental artists, and botanists, he wove an intricate tapestry of art and technology, dissolving the boundaries between human and plant life. RIPPLES 3 became a profound meditation on interconnection, communication, and the shared beauty of existence.
