THE HARMONIUM
This pandemic Hackea brings you the future of performance. Lightweight, customizable ,multi-purpose and mobile that is how Hackea envisions the future of performance spaces to be. Taking design cues from the traditional Indian instrument with the same name Hackea introduces the compact and easy to build Harmonium.
Harmonium is an answer to the growing need for community in the post pandemic age. In these tough times, its easy to install, plug and move feature makes art and performances accessible for both artists and the community . Take it to your local park or the main square, to your shopping street or the community hall Harmonium goes with you everywhere.
Use it for your next gig, or an intimate book reading, your next play, a family outdoor gathering or even your next black lives matter protest Harmonium can be dismantled, re-confi gured and installed however you want.
The standard Harmonium comes with 5 4mX4m interlocked units and each unit can accommodate 4 people with 2m social distancing. The design is meant to encourage more intimate, meaningful gatherings for a maximum of 20 people. It is easy to plug-in and conceal services as well as adjustable stage location and distance will be perfect for any event.
What’s more the Harmonium is great during the pandemic too. Make your own isolation units in your backyard, host socially distanced play dates for your kids or donate one for a family in need. Forget the traditional theatres and auditoriums , Harmonium is the new modular future in these rapidly
changing times.
