Hamilton 
Events Description
Coming to Hamilton’s waterfront this fall from November 1 to 26, Sonic Runway is a light-art installation that translates audio signals into patterns of light that shoot down a 432 ft. (132 meters) corridor of 25 LED lined arches at the speed of sound.
Sonic Runway creates an unforgettable experience as you walk through the arches. At the front of Sonic Runway, you see musical sound waves rippling away. Walking down the corridor, sound and light are always in sync. Looking back from the far end, you can see the sound waves coming towards you in light, and hear the music as the pattern reaches you.
In addition to Sonic Runway, temporary art installations by local artists will be on display as well as a series of live performances and community events on select evenings.
Sonic Runway will be on display at Pier 8 along the Waterfront Trail near the Discovery Centre (57 Discovery Dr.) and is best experienced in the evening from 5:00-10:00pm when the light and sound components will be activated. This outdoor experience is free to attend.
Sonic Runway was created by Rob Jensen, Warren Trezevant and is tour produced by Creos.
People who are sensitive to strobe lights should use caution.
Parking at Pier 8 is limited and the public are encouraged to walk, bike or bus to the waterfront.
Sections of the Waterfront Trail by the Discovery Centre at Pier 8 will be unavailable on October 30 & 31 and on November 27 to allow for assembly of Sonic Runway.
