What is The Magnetic Sound Project?

Magnetic Sound® is a growing collection of resonating sculptures designed to calm the mind.

Created as technically-inclined conceptual artwork, the sculptures generate magnetic energy to induce vibration in metal and wood, fusing traditional instrument design with innovative technology to create tranquil soundscapes the world has never before experienced.

The project debuted in 2014 as a release from creative technologist MJ Caselden, and has appeared in retreat and hospitality spaces, museums, public spaces, and meditation centers across the United States, Europe, and Asia. Collaboration with renowned tech entities such as Intel supported the development of a series of custom versions of Magnetic Sound systems, and acquired works reside in collections and private properties as part of a growing legacy in design and sonic innovation.
