A variety program in the Sound Mandala's immersive 100-loudspeaker theatre. No two pieces alike. No genre off-limits. Signal&Soul is the Sound Mandala at its most adventurous — a single evening that moves from hip-hop to the cosmos, from Beatles psychedelia to the quantum void, from beatboxing to Anton Chekhov. Buckle up.

The Sound Mandala is a new way of listening to recorded sounds, in a room full of loudspeakers arranged in a matrix allowing for a wide variety of sound distribution and motion. In the auditory domain, the Sound Mandala imitates the visual trick of film motion by placing dozens of loudspeakers into a space organized into a matrix of lines and rows, then dividing, or spreading a sound along these lines and rows to create a sinuous ‘motion’ of sound. This summer the Sound Mandala will present a new show at the Unicorn Theatre as well as joining the KC Fringe Festival 2026, featuring a 100-loudspeaker channel system in the Jerome black box theatre seating 40 people. We refer to the Sound Mandala as a ‘Mecca-concept’—-you must go there to have the experience. As this invention becomes commercialized and we experiment with visual images, this Mecca-concept will be a decided advantage to a film presenter—an advantage movie theatres do not enjoy today. The Sound Mandala experience cannot be duplicated in the home or in a car.
