Sound Drawings with Performer
My recent work starts with a performer standing in the centre of the room, wearing a mask with a circuit woven into it. On the far wall is a framed piece of paper with two copper strips.The circuit emits a tone when you draw connecting lines with a graphite pencil between the copper strips. The frequency of the sound is determined by the amount of graphite between the two copper points. Drawing and erasing lines, the audience is in control of the sound coming from my mask. The installation continues after the opening night, with a copper figure replacing the performer.
