about

"Howling Objects" became the first step in developing my floor-based sound performances. I made ten tin cylinders thirty-five centimeters high and from fifteen centimeters to eighty centimeters in diameter. And I painted them black. When I put a wireless microphone in them, I was able to line them up on the floor like a musical scale: do-re-mi-fa-so- la-ti-do. Then by placing the microphone in the center of the space, I got a lot of interesting sound variations by sticking the cylinders inside each other and moving them around. Listening to those unpredictable sounds emerge from them was kind of like performing a ceremony.
