Immersive exhibition-installation "Feel the Octave", where century-old history and modern technologies will combine as succinctly as the sounds of a musical interval.
The exhibition is dedicated to an important part of the industrial and creative history of the city and is conditionally divided in time by an interval of about eight decades. Many generations of Tulyaks are firmly connected with the country-famous electroacoustics factory. The history of microphones, which have been manufactured in Tula for more than 90 years, has become personal for many.
In 1936, the era of microphones began at the Oktava plant. Yuri Levitan and Yuri Gagarin spoke in them, Maya Kristalinskaya and Vladimir Vysotsky sang. U2, Iron Maiden, Radiohead, Marilyn Manson, Leningrad, and Black Star artists have worked and are working with modern Tula microphones.
In the installation hall, you will become the main character of a mini-performance that unites the entire exhibition into a single whole: by recording stories into three different Octave microphones, you will immerse yourself in the atmospheric sound of historical facts and wishes .
Thus, at the exhibition you experience the sound, visual and sensory experience of the time interval, feel the past, present and future of the "Octave" in all its manifestations.
You can get more information about the exhibition in the media library of the Museum of the Machine Tool.
