Simmari was an immersive sonic experience for the Kontula Swimming hall.
The imaginary soundscape was blended with Kontula neighbours' stories weaving intimate real-time composition of familiar soundscapes and memories.
The realm of field recordings identifying area included sounds from the forest, the shopping mall, restuarants, the metro, and the swimming hall itself. Simmari allowed the bodies of the swimmers, waves and echoes of the swimming hall drive the performance unfolding into a spatial and embodied ambience.
