Wood, steel, Mylar, bass strings, motors, computer control. (8’ tall, dimensions variable)

An overhead camera tracks the movement of viewers surrounding four columns strung with acoustic bass strings. The movement around one of the stings is interpreted through a computer that controls the rate at which a motor (mounted to each of the columns) plays each string; the more movement around the column, the faster the motor plucks the string. The audio is picked up through contact microphones and output through speakers underneath a steel frame. Within the steel frame sits a stretched Mylar "canvas." On top of the canvas a thin layer of charcoal creates drawings from the vibrations of the audio produced by the bass stings; all of which is ultimately a mediated documentation of the spatial relationships of the participants.
