Numen
A multimedia song cycle
Albany Town Hall, Kinjarling · 17 September – 14 October 2026
Albany/Kinjarling 2026 · The season has closed
Six audiovisual compositions spanning cosmic origins to inferred futures, exploring Albany and Kinjarling across vastly different scales of time and space.
For four weeks of Albany/Kinjarling 2026, Numen turned the First Floor Auditorium of Albany Town Hall into a walk-in world of three giant screens and surround sound — the first immersive CAVE installation ever staged in the hall, made in Albany by local artists.
What people said
A spectacular visual display telling a story that reaches billions of years into Deep Time… A must see.
