Presented at Struer Tracks Biennale for Sound Art, curated by Rune Søchting
TruAudio rock speakers, 8-channel surround sound system
In
the piece Soft Interference 8 loudspeakers are installed in a hilly
area in Struer Park. From here a voice is heard, directly addressing
the audience through various vocalizations, however without any clear
purpose or intention. The voice clears its throat, shushes the
bypassers, and through fragmented vocalizations, breathing and other
bodily sounds a space between articulation and semantic dissolution is
created. This voice emanates a
certain ambiguity. This ambiguityis is amplified by the choice of
speakers, which take on the shape of imitated rocks, thus simulating a
natural occurence while obviously being artificial.
