Sounds Make Sense

A floor covered with bubble wrap. A microphone and chaos pad.  What amazing sounds we made as we travelled over the bubble wrap, catching the sounds with the microphone and distorting this sound by using the chaos pad. Later we added colour by drawing on the ipad and projecting this onto the floor  as we moved over and through the space.

Sounds Make Sense

Suspended bike wheels, lights and rolling wheel rims.

Today we explored the sounds we could make using bike wheels. We took wooden sticks, running them over the spinning spokes. This made a great sound and lovely shadows on the floor.

We rolled the wheel rims across the floor, watching and listening to them as they lost momentum and wobbled to flat on the floor.

Boxes

Inside Outside

A circle of stacked boxes with space inside. On the outside: shadows, projections and colour. Inside: a changing environment made by projected ipad drawings. Sounds on the boxes, music and smells added an extra experience.

Boxes

Towers and walls of boxes catching light, images and shadows.

This is the first week of the 'Boxes' installation. We have been exploring what is possible using projections, moving the boxes to catch the colours and to create new spaces ad shapes.

Week 5 Interactive Net Installation

Netted

Today we filmed ourselves moving and dancing. We projected these images onto the net so that we could dance, move and watch ourselves. Later we projected drawn lines and shapes using an ipad and of course there were shadows. All this accompanied by amazing music created by participants.

Week 3 Interactive Net Installation

Contours and Sculptures

Changing the shape by stretching and pulling the net we created sculptures that held for a moment and faded before a new sculpture emerged. The sound and lights reflected the atmosphere of the work.

Week 2 Interactive Net Installation

Colour and Contour

Shaping, reshaping, changing the space using colour and sound; we projected abstract colour images using transparent coloured sheets which we could move and change and pre made slides.

Comments Today: 'It's like a computer graphic; 'It's the best installation so far'; 'Clouds, Sea, it could be anything'.

Week 1 of our Interactive Net Installation

Completely filling the room, the net describes and changes the space. Lights and music paint the surfaces that will move and change as we interact with it.

Look, watch, move through, linger under, stretch and shape.

Feedback from today - what was it like?
'A Sound Wave';  'A Mountain'; 'A Spiders Web'; 'A Tent'.

Ritual 13

Offerings , Silver and Shrines.

Today we have been exploring rituals around offerings and food. We created our own special space using things that caught and reflected the light. We used different sounds to create an atmosphere. We then took our offerings into our special space.
