A living collaboration between humans and nature

MUSHROOM MUSIC

ONLY FOR A LIMITED TIME

About the Experience

Nature has always been speaking to us… now, you can finally hear it. Step into the hidden world beneath our feet with Mushroom Music, Arcadia Earth’s newest room in collaboration with Canadian Artist, Modern Biology.

‍

In this room, you will embark on an interactive journey into the world of fungi, exploring a living, breathing experience where the soundtrack is created in real time… by you and our resident mushrooms!

‍

This room is a powerful reminder of just how deeply connected we are to our planet and why protecting it has never been more imperative.

‍

Mushroom Music is only available at Arcadia Earth for a limited time. Access to this room is included with all Arcadia Earth tickets. No additional cost required.

PERSPECTIVE

How It WOrks

Interactive Mushroom Music stations let you connect with live mushrooms and turn your presence into sound. By placing your hands on touchpads, natural electrical signals from your body and the mushrooms are translated into evolving notes and rhythms.

‍

Every interaction in this room generates a one-of-a-kind soundscape, meaning no two experiences are ever the same. In this new room you’ll become a part of the pulse that sustains our planet, showing just how connected we are to the world beneath us.

Impact

We created this room, intentionally launching on Earth Day, as a powerful reminder of just how deeply connected we are to our planet, aiming to spark curiosity around how our everyday actions ripple through and impact the hidden world beneath us.
