20th – 26th August 2021 • Brighton Basketball Court (Seafront)

Ready to Drop is a site-specific sound installation created for the basketball court on Brighton’s seafront. The installation is provides a sonic response to court, embracing the energy of the court through field recordings captured on site alongside composition elements. The work can be experienced every night from 10PM until 10AM between 20th and 26th August 2021. Free entry.

“After dark, when the court is empty, the basketball sounds will be played back, filling the air as if the ghosts of that day were still playing. Sounds of the halyards and rigging will be added. The range of sounds will be extended: on the one hand human sounds – conversations, arguments, announcements, on the other hand natural sounds – sounds of the sea that range from the gentle to the apocalyptic. We looked for relationships between these two sets of sounds and made them into music that envelopes the listeners, disorientates them, and makes them look at the landscape again.” – John Del’ Nero
