There is something a bit creepy about an abandoned building, knowing that it was once full of life and is now empty, often crumbling and taken back by nature. It’s even more haunting when it’s a monastery. Over the centuries many monasteries were closed and abandoned for different reasons and have varied historic significance, but have one thing in common. These architectural marvels stand empty and abandoned, providing a fascinating, mysterious and sometimes creepy look not only into the past, but also into their ghost like present.
Eighth Tower invited 15 musicians from all over the world to create music and soundscapes inspired by abandoned monasteries and aiming to evoke the psychological effect they have upon us.
