soundpedro2022

soundpedro is a season of experimental sound art events, presented annually, that investigates the way we perceive and experience sound. Many works are multi-sensory, addressing sound and aural perception in combination with other senses. It is produced by the Long Beach artist group FLOOD and hosted by Angels Gate Cultural Center. soundpedro is not a music event.
"In celebrating our 40 year anniversary, soundpedro helps us to support artists that don't always get seen, or heard, locally. The chance to walk around this great campus and fall upon a new sound art installation around every corner draws crowds to the top of the hill each year. soundpedro has become a signature event here at Angels Gate Cultural Center, and we are excited to work with FLOOD to bring it back on campus in our 40th year!"
