Slide into this sound table and become a musical performer in a swinging symphony. Place your hand on the tabletop and feel your host's voice. Listen to your spoon, explore your fork. Hover your hands over musical cups. Dip them in clear water and watch the sounds vibrate.
Step into this voyage of discovery that makes your senses dart. In his quest for Europe's best-sounding restaurant, sound artist Fedde designed interactive sound tables. Everything you touch on this special dining table makes sound and vibrates. Music, sound, playfulness: you've never dined like this before!
Sit down and take a journey through the wonderful world of our eating habits. Are we still connected during the mundane ritual of a meal? Find out in this mind-blowing experience for young, old and everything in between.
