About Bicrophonic Research Institute

The Bicrophonic Research Institute (BRI) makes music and audio landscapes to be triggered and played by you the cyclist. http://sonicbikes.net/how-we-do-it

Bicrophonic Research Institute Description

Through ten years of international projects, the BRI has developed the sonic bike which plays music that changes dependent on where and how you pedal through a pair of bike-mounted speakers.

Launched in 2014, its aim is to develop a network of sonic bike making activity worldwide. Working collectively from a London lab, it makes open source hard and software applications, advising, inspiring and running workshops, collaborating with local communities to design and build their own sonic bikes, tech systems and and music.

BRI artists and coders have interdisciplinary expertise with all age ranges and abilities, able to design with children or deliver lectures at cutting edge conference, industry or community centres. Music making across all genres and abilities is encouraged and supported.

The sonic bike can be a musical instrument. A portable stage, a game player, a doorway to listening and looking that creates good health. The bike itself can also be developed for any kind of cyclist or non cyclist.

BRI research opens doors for makers and users. It invites participation across skills and seeks to share and grow its practice.
