Audium- the first theater of its kind in the world- has been pioneering the idea of live sound movement for over 50 years. The installation consists of a foyer, sound labyrinth and main performance space with over 176 speakers in total. Sounds are “sculpted” through their movement, direction, speed and intensity on multiple planes in space.

Audium strives to fill a need in the Bay Area and in the world of new music at large, holding a space for the intersection of sound, space, and deep immersive experience from all cultures. Audium's programming includes the only paid spatial sound residency on the West Coast, a rotating schedule of shows, and an education program that seeks to inspire the next generation of sound creators.

How do you map something invisible?

Hidden Currents draws from golden lionheart collier’s original body of research, The Mother Patch. This work is a reimagining of the routes of forced migration across the African diaspora- known as the Maafa, or great disaster. For centuries, European and Asian empires trafficked African lives, forcing millions across the Atlantic and beyond.

Working with community partners and archival collaborators, collier activates hundreds of field recordings, interviews, and archival audio, weaving together Candomblé devotees, New Orleans Second Line processions, Bomba dancers, ring shouts, field hollers, water drumming, family interviews, and elders speaking of Hoodoo.


August 6th, 2026 – August 29th, 2026
Every Thursday, Friday & Saturday
Doors 7:30pm; show 8:00pm
$20–$30
Pay-what-you-can tickets are available at doors for each show, on a first come, first served basis
