Stone Tones – immersive experience with Justin Wiggan

We are excited to announce “Stone Tones,” an innovative and immersive experience created by award wining sound artist Justin Wiggan. This unique event offers participants the chance to engage with the museum’s extensive collection of stones, rocks, crystals, and minerals in an entirely new way.

“Stone Tones” provides a biosonic haptic stone massage, allowing attendees to experience the natural world through sound and touch. Participants will don haptic backpacks that deliver physical vibrations synchronized with the unique soundscapes generated by the museum’s geological collection. Each session lasts 10 minutes and accommodates three people, ensuring an intimate and shared sensory journey.

Connecting with the vibrations and sounds of nature has been shown to offer significant well-being benefits, promoting relaxation, reducing stress, and enhancing emotional connection to the natural world. This multisensory approach encourages a deeper appreciation and emotional bond with the earth’s geological treasures, fostering a sense of tranquility and mindfulness.

Don’t miss this opportunity to explore the intersection of art, nature, and well-being in a groundbreaking format. Join us at the Royal Cornwall Museum for an unforgettable experience that resonates both physically and emotionally.
