Abstract

The Finnish-German art-science exhibition consists of wooden and ceramic sculptures, paintings, drawings and a virtual reality video called "Drumming in the evening". The virtual reality video brings to life the soundscape at the rock painting site of Siliävuori, Finland, about 5,000 years ago. The painted rock cliff rising directly from the lake responds to drumming with echoes. Rock painting sites with images of animals, humans, boats and even drummers are believed to have been ritual sites for prehistoric hunter-fisher-gatherers. The virtual reality reconstruction of Siliävuori was made in collaboration between cognitive scientists, musicologists and archaeologists at the Universities of Helsinki and Oulu, using terrestrial and aerial laser scans, spherical photography, spatial impulse response recordings, studio recordings and convolution. The working group included Paavo Rinkkala, Jami Pekkanen, Otto Lappi, Kai Lassfolk, Mikko Heikinpoika, Jari Okkonen and Riitta Rainio.
