looking again at Tony Oursler – edited by Simona Lodi 1998 1970’s movement of art – with a generation formed by media of TV – ‘form follows content‘ disenchanted with TV as an object celebrated by previous generation of artists (Nam June Paik etc) “…converting a household appliance into art whereas, I felt like the […]
I did a couple of tests with film onto and into some of the objects in my studio the effects that are created by mixing projection, object and space are really exciting and this is whay I would like to push further for myself, the familiar object immersed and used alongside the film is where […]
– I have finished a group of boxes that can hold both the pipes and the speakers The black plastic I originally used looked far too tacky and too flimsy. I found a rubber matting that works really well at keeping the shape and will also operate as a good sound holder. I tried to […]
this is a continuation from a previous post (salt & pepper experiments) I installed the wax teapots and experimented with sounds I had recorded and was playing through headphone speakers inside the pots the sound isn’t loud enough and after much testing I have now found some speakers that will fit inside the teapots if […]
After my meeting with Alyson and trialling installing bits indoors I needed to decide on exactly what I wanted record or write list of sounds I want detail what sounds for what pieces sounds in tubes, screaming, whispering, music, domestic sounds detail each installation and what I need – speakers, leads to go with each […]
working on the speaker boxes again – I have edged all the shapes and also created some with carpet offcuts – I like the idea of mixing up fractures of domesticity – I also think that the material will alter the sound I played with the speaker boxes in the space using tape as […]
As part of the the Falmouth Workshop this is one of the few I was able to book onto. I brought along some petri dishes of swabs I had taken from around my house – in particular the doorknobs It was a fascinating workshop and above are some images taken during the day. I am […]
using bits of flooring I had used previously I cut shapes out of the vinyl to ground and base the pipes this gave strength and weight to the origin of the pipes used – by playing with the composition of these shapes and pipes they appeared to start a dialogue with each other – by […]
I began by using the net curtain. I have experimented with filming through, casting in plaster and casting in wax. By using salt I wanted to see the effects of laying traces of an object – leaving an index of what was there . The effect was quite mesmerising and there was a taste of […]
thinking of sound and collaborating with Alyson I started to think of vessels for sound and have revisited the domestic pipes that I used towards the end of my second year – it feels quite natural and cohesive to bring these objects back into current work Alyson and I have very similar themes that run […]
