Visitors to the National Art Museum of China must enter a media art exhibition in a most unusual way - through a gate beset by air currents.
Xinhua News Agency reported the gate, an air current acoustic field, is part of the Synthetic Times – Media Art China 2008 exhibition.
Sounds of the air currents assault the ears while passing through the gate, but fade out quickly outside the gate.
The exhibition, which runs from June 10 to July 3, showcases over forty media art installation works by more than one hundred artists from about thirty countries.
