A simple concept with a spectacular affect. Take a room full of clubbers, arm them all with a set of wireless headphones, have two separate DJ's broadcast to them live via two dedicated FM channels and watch the utterly surreal spectacle that unfolds. A mass of humanity, throwing moves, pulling shapes and singing along to what appears to everyone else to be... complete silence. Welcome to the hugely popular phenomenon that is, 'Headphone Disco'.
HISTORY
The idea has been around since the mid 90's when a group of French performance artists ran small scale installations at arts venues across Europe. In recent years thought it's been popularised through the rock festival circuit and more recently through club events which has seen it turn from conceptual art into a full scale clubbing phenomenon
