Electric Voice Theatre are delighted to be invited to work with Songhaven, whose concert series for people living with dementia is a feature of Conway Hall. Voices and Minds: Creative Responses to Dementia gives us an opportunity to share our work with scientists from the Serpell Lab at the University of Sussex on the Misfolding Project – a commissioned series of five audio-visual works that draw inspiration from scientific research to explore the biology behind Alzheimer’s disease. The pieces were first exhibited at Phoenix Art Space, Brighton in April 2023.

As well as showing the commissioned work our Artistic Director, Frances M Lynch will be joined by the lead Misfolding Scientist, Professor Louise Serpell, to discuss current developments in the lab’s research and our collaboration, interspersed with some of the music made for the project, which has also seen us earlier in the year giving a workshop at Conway Hall, and creating a large scale project with Handcross Primary School in Haywards Heath.
