This is a room you can enter from anywhere. Twenty speakers stand in an oval ring, one voice in each. In the middle two dancers move, recorded with a depth camera in rehearsals of Saapuminen / Arrival at Oulu Art Museum in November 2026.
Put on headphones. Move closer and the voices come closer. Go near the dancers and you hear one of them breathing. Step outside the ring and the room turns into something you look at instead of something you are inside.
It is a sketch. It does not replace being in the room. It shows what the room is for.
Listening room and sound: Jaakko Autio. Movement: Saapuminen / Arrival, Henna-Maria Hanhineva and working group. Sound in the speakers: SALATTU. Best with headphones on a computer or a recent phone.
