Collaboration

by Lu Clarke, and Jaye Ho

Work to explore the transformation of movement to sound, and sound to movement. 22 speaker components are spread out on the floor. Each speaker diaphragm contains dirt, dust and sawdust. Contact microphones are hidden under lino tiles on the floor, situated at the entrance and exit of the space. When viewers walk over the tiles the sound of their footstep is processed by a reverb effects unit to repeat and echo. The sound is made visible through the vibrating diaphragm agitating the debris.

Technical requirements: 22 speaker components, contact microphones, four way amplifier, mixing desk, zoom effects unit.
