Hush Hush Headphones Presents: The Secret Space
The Secret Space is a 6 month Hush Hush Headphones pop-up centered around ongoing activations that encourage the community to make going downtown a part of their social/cultural/artistic lifestyle in Jacksonville. Through curating ongoing events––including dance parties, live shows, quiet karaoke, and digital media experiences–– The Secret Space will cultivate joy, connection, community, creation, and resources for locals by using the Hush Hush Headphones technology in both familiar and experimental ways. Experiencing a Hush Hush silent disco often leaves an impression on people––many feel like they’re transported to another place since it’s not like anything else you can experience in Jacksonville. Utilizing the Hush Hush technology in new ways will offer even more novel experiences unlike anything seen before. Here’s what we have planned:
Silent Disco Dance Parties
Hush Hush dance parties offer three channels of music that focus on variety and danceability to ensure there is something for everyone––because of that, Hush Hush attracts people of all ages and backgrounds.
Live Shows
A live show at The Secret Space will be unlike anything else. Listening to live performances through headphones offers amazing sound clarity, while personalized volume control makes performances accessible for those with sound sensitivities. These shows will provide a new performance experience for local artists and show the community a new and intimate way to experience live music.
Quiet Karaoke
During quiet karaoke, community members can rent one of 3 playfully themed rooms to sing whatever they want with whoever they want, at whatever volume they want.
Digital Media
Secret Space will be using newly acquired modular LED paneling to merge art and technology for creative immersive experiences. This element will enhance each event with customized digital media and local artist features.
