Vibraception

Vibraception: Investigations in Wavespace brings together a range of experimental and theoretical approaches to understanding space as shaped by vibratory forces. Conceived as a companion to a series of sound interventions realized by sound artist Jan St. Werner in and around the Museum of Contemporary Art in Zagreb (MSU) from September 2024 to April 2025, the book documents and expands upon these sonic explorations, culminating in a site-responsive exhibition.

The core investigations—conducted by Michael Akstaller, Rudyard Schmidt, Gascia Ouzounian, Brett Mommersteeg, Nikola Bojić, Damir Gamulin, David Grubbs, and Jan St. Werner—are complemented by contributions from Louis Chude-Sokei, Marina Peterson, Madison Greenstone, Andy Graydon, Marta Pedišić, and Ana Škegro. Each contributor engages the project’s central premise from a distinct angle—whether academic, scientific, fictional, dialogical, curatorial, or idiosyncratic—tuning into wavespace as a dynamic field of resonance, interference, and perception.
