    I cannot begin to describe how amazing and mysterious and one-of-a-kind this place is. You just have to go in and experience it with your own ears! Definitely a hidden gem in SF!

    A sound art installation that has been in SF since 1967 and run by the same guy since. "Audium has pioneered the language of space in music for over 50 years." Be sure to ask him how it all works. :)

    It's cool, and kind of romantic as a date idea, and 70s in every way—even though Schaff actually premiered a new piece, Audium 9, in 2008. He won't be around forever, so check it out while you can. Read more

    "Bathe in extreme surround sound with 176 speakers filling a dark, circular room meant to create a 'sound sculpture.' AUDIUM 9 is performed every Friday and Saturday at 8:30pm (arrive by 8:15)."

    Come early (8pm) because it sells out quickly. Stand in front in waiting hall to grab a seat in the middle for best sound.

    A very unique, esoteric music experience focused on sound movement. It’s certainly interesting, but wouldn’t say I enjoyed it. Go to a music-focused show if they have one.

    I cannot recommend this experience enough! Arrive early: it sells out every week.

    Magical Modernist sound art installation, not to be missed if you're a music nerd.

    Personally this was too new age for my taste and lacked direction and complexity.
