speaker (2007)
This installation explores digital processes as sculptural form and performance.
The development of this project drew on my life within Soundsystem Culture in the UK and my practice as a performer and creative technologist. This interactive work was installed for my final Fine Art MA exhibition at Bristol City University. As a result, I was awarded second prize in the prestigious IKON galleries masters show of the year award.
The viewer walks towards the figure dressed as a speaker, beatboxing terribly on a screen. As the move closer a 10k speaker rig and inducers in the walls and floor create a brain filling bassline version of the performer’s sound.
Installation, cardboard, 10k Soundsystem, sonic range sensor, A/V and DMX controlled lighting.
