Clout-Count is the central piece of Alicja Kwade’s exhibition “In Absence” at the Berlinische Galerie. Presented on a giant loudspeaker ring that almost reaches the ceiling of the museum, the artist's heartbeat is transmitted into the exhibition space in a series of alternating spatial figures. THE SOUND OF THE MOUNTAIN was responsible for the technical planning, programming, and implementation on-site. MNTN was used for the production of the piece and its playback at the Berlinische Galerie.

The Humboldt Forum in Berlin opened to the public in 2021. The inaugural edition of the immersive listening space at the Ethnological Museum included Marc Sinan’s spatial audio piece OKSUS. MNTN provided the flexibility to easily translate the spatial mix onto the hybrid 3D audio system of the listening space, which is equipped with two spatial audio technologies, ambisonics and wave field synthesis.

For his artwork The Cosmic Dust Spider Web Orchestra, Tomás Saraceno commissioned THE SOUND OF THE MOUNTAIN to spatially augment and translate optically detected dust particles into sound sources projected onto 32 loudspeakers. The sound waves thus produced set a living spider's web into vibrations, contributing to the sonic landscape. The interactive real-time rendering projected 128 sound sources onto 32 loudspeakers using the MNTN Spatial Sound System. The positioning of each of the sound sources was derived from a 3D camera detecting dust particles floating in a light beam. The spatial detection of individual dust particles was then used to translate positions into locations and movements of sound sources in the three-dimensional exhibition space.

Romanticum is a permanent exhibition about the German Romanticism Period in the city center of Koblenz. The visitors experience a three-dimensional sound trip to the legendary Rhine Valley covering the entire exhibition space, where they acoustically cruise on a 19th-century steamboat. Boarding at dawn at the awakening harbor, steering along the river banks, and into the magical night hours spellbound by Lorelei, a famous local female water spirit, the sonic journey provides a humorous backdrop to the exhibits and informative text presented in the exhibition. THE SOUND OF THE MOUNTAIN developed the technical concept for the spatial loudspeaker array; the MNTN Production Suite was used to produce all audio content.
