"A Colour/Sound Instrument" specially created for
this exhibition by Colourscape artist Peter Jones and computer
musician Lawrence Casserley. Large "sails" swoop from floor to
ceiling; coloured lights illuminate the space; long strings vibrate
with ethereal music; and you will be playing this instrument.
