Project by: Jean Francois.
The Harmonical Chaos' Project is a sound sculpture, a sculpture which is physical but also auditive. The sculpture consists of a podium made of plexiglas on which the speakers, an amplifier and microphone is attached to. The speakers are put up in an uncommon flower-like-shape. This construction is placed upon a half-sphere - a former functional bowl. The microphone is plugged into a loop pedal which is approximately 5 minutes long. It records everything from the microphone in a "infinitely" playback of whatever its’ former audience have said, song or done. The loop-pedal goes into a digital delay-pedal: this provides reverb, delay and width to the output.
The “rules / the messages” placed on top of the microphone, guiding the user on how to use our installation changed during the exhibition in order to change the performance experience of our installation. The particularity of our sculpture is that the visitor shapes the sound of the sculpture.
