As a venue to present multi-channel pieces and (learn to) work with multi-channel systems, Floating Sound Gallery Vienna appears to be an entity on the crossing point of art gallery, concert hall and label. The listener is invited to experience sound works as if they were sculptures or pictures, out of “time” dimension – that sides it with art gallery; from concert hall, if to leave behind its practice of stage focusing, Floating Sound Gallery Vienna inherits a practice of musicking; finally, since there are no other wide-spread facilities to listen to multi-channel pieces at home or portably or else, Floating Sound Gallery Vienna holds an extension of music label in that sense – all these three shapes the concept and the practice of a Sound Art Gallery.
