Bakelite telephone sound installation<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is an interactive work that repurposes a 1950s Bell Manufacturing Company telephone to engage with the perceptive process of change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The work aims to cultivate a self-reflexive mode of attention, by displacing sound in time and subjecting it to a recursive disintegration that foregrounds the listener\u2019s experience of and relationship to the dissolution of sounds that have recently passed through echoic memory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By codifying the experience of impermanence into a subjective event, the possibility for a non-conceptual metacognitive engagement with the perceptive process of change arises, something akin to what Henri Bergson has described as interfacing with the flow of duration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It consists of a Pure Data patch running on a Bela board (https:\/\/bela.io\/<\/a>) with an HC-SR04 proximity sensor, force sensing resistor, electret mic and 2 small speaker cones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
