Soundlab #1 Aeio

Walk, move, dance: Aeio turns your movements into music.

MUSIC ROBOT AEIO

Aeio is an interactive music robot with 12 strings. Instead of a traditional bow, it uses electromagnets and piano hammers to set the strings in motion, creating a soft, floating sound reminiscent of string instruments.

Thanks to a built-in radar sensor, your movements become the driving force behind the music. Like the composers of LAB I: Musical Prompts, Aeio explores new ways of creating, experiencing and listening to sound.

Aeio is an installation by Stichting Logos.

Musical Prompts · 17.10.2026 · Brussels Philharmonic LAB @ Flagey

Prompts instead of notes? That’s what happens when you dare to let go of control: a graphic spark that disrupts, liberates, or completely reinvents the classical orchestral sound. Forget the ticking of your watch — here, music doesn’t rush forward; it bites into the now. Ilan Volkov and four visionary composers ask us to listen differently: what remains when the noise falls away?
