7 Minutes Show, 2024
Approx. 7”, JBL, jar and a drawing.
For Reverse Perspective preformed at Hoet Gallery, Ghent.
This orchestration\arrangement\independent work, was divided into three parts, three main actions: in the first third, inserting the speaker into the jar, in the second third, closing (and sealing) and opening the lid, and in the third, rolling the drawing and inserting it half way into the jar as I changed its shape between two states. Some of these actions were the realization of a real phenomenon and some merely an imitation of it: creating and enhancing distortion; editing and enhancing bass; creating a sound box, and last, creating a darker sound and a sensation of distance. The disappearance and appearance were not only the disappearance and appearance of the sound (high to low volume and vice versa), but almost the “physical” presence of the sound as well as of the sound source - for there is a difference between a sound that is faint when it is close and a sound that is strong when it is far.
