Variable Frequencies

Dimensions variable

Copper cable

2.

A series of cable sculptures acting as antennas to broadcast sonic transmissions over short-range radio networks.

3.

In this work, variable lengths and configurations of thin copper cabling are installed within a space to form ephemeral antennas. Audio recordings are broadcast and distributed by the structures, then received by nearby portable radio receivers. Interference from the surrounding environment creates an unstable and shifting connection to the signal.

Site-dependent installation, positioned across multiple floors of a three-story building.

Exploring behaviour and awareness in public spaces, this work consists of a conspicuously positioned microphone, connected to a microFM transmitter it broadcasts heard sounds to a grid of radio receivers elsewhere in the building.

Installation contemplating and reflecting upon disembodiment of self, space and place.

3.

An exterior webcam is connected to a TV positioned inside a gallery space. Sound from the live feed can be heard before video can be seen, which in itself, is framed with a distorted reflection of the surrounding room. Movement picked up by the webcam triggers synthetic sounds that augment the soundscape of the built urban environment.

Within a room engulfed by sine tones from multiple speakers, carefully positioned audio cables form circles to show where standing waves create auditory zones of loudness and quietness.

Constructed from a live performance, the two tracks for this recording were edited and shape-shifted in post-production, further blurring the line between stage and studio.
