Purple PREMIERE : WE ARE NOT ALONE by SOUNDWALK COLLECTIVE for The Louvre Abu Dhabi Museum

Composed and produced by Soundwalk Collective for Louvre Abu Dhabi.

The Louvre Abu Dhabi museum is happy to announce the premiere of SOUNDWALK COLLECTIVE – WE ARE NOT ALONE.

This sound creation is interpreted by Willem Dafoe, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Hussain Al Jassmi, Zhou Dongyu, Nina Kraviz, Wim Wenders & Jean Nouvel, in 6 different languages, the sound piece concludes with an M.I.T. algorithm defining the names of future exoplanets.

This sound creation from Soundwalk Collective takes us thousands of years into the future: a time where super intelligence and interstellar travel is the norm. One is invited to discover the Louvre Abu Dhabi and its surroundings to understand history, its impact and meaning in a post-human galaxy, while questioning free will, human nature and destiny.

Humans have a unique ability for abstract thinking paired with an affinity for the past, giving rise to museums that capture history and preserve it. We reflect as we look into the future: building on the work of our ancestors, where is our species headed? After all, lived reality is always a construction of the imagination
