This exhibition breaks the traditional boundaries between concerts, sound installations, sculpture and music.

The Sound of Gesture is Wishart's latest work. It is a series of compositions for violin, sensors and computer which are conceived as visual pieces & filmed by Berlin video artist Yvonne Mohr. Currently on show at Netwerk / Center for Contemporary Art, Aalst, Belgium until the 12th of June 2010 when there will be an end of exhibition concert and launch of the work as a CD, DVD & print publication. This was developed with support from ZKM, Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie and the ADK, Akademie der Künste from Germany and follows on from a series of installations Wishart has produced on the visualisation of music with the artist Joan Grounds at the Arts Gallery of NSW, Sydney; with Machine for Making Sense at the Sydney Opera House; and at CACSA Contemporary Art Gallery of South Australia, Adelaide.
