UNVEILED PRESENCE (secret sounds 5)
The fifth chapter UNVEILED PRESENCE (secret sound 5) of the long-term project uses field recordings made in the city of Brunswick, Germany. A central component of the installation is a grand piano made by the Brunswick-based company Schimmel. A composition of field recording extracts is transformed into electro-dynamic vibrations and fed into three vibration transducers mounted to the resonance body of the piano. The vibrating sound of Brunswick’s isolated urban soundscape amalgamates the classic musical instrument with local identity.
