About Wet Hands
Channel is an immersive electronic soundbath by Wet Hands, performed inside a transformed shipping container at The Cubicle at Buccleuch Place as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The experience begins with a restorative sonic reset, then gradually weaves live audience-contributed sounds into an evolving ambient composition. Over 75 minutes, the work guides participants between wakefulness and hypnagogic dream states. Described as part installation, part gathering space, it is designed around choice and comfort with intimate capacity. Suitable for audiences aged 12 and over. Audience participation is expected.
Why see this show?
A rare Fringe offering that asks nothing of you except to listen and rest. Inside a converted shipping container, Channel uses your own sounds alongside electronic music to build something genuinely communal and calm — quite unlike any conventional show.
