The Prototype

The Prototype

The above is one of my very first sound sculptures called "Bubbles" due to its bubble-like exterior that is juxtaposed the rough earthy texture, with a clinical highly constructed interior. Made as a part of my final year folio in 1998.

Above here is one of my sound sculptures. This extra feature was discovered by someone who attended one of my first art shows, and I am forever grateful. From this point forward these static objects I created came to life! A whole genre of art and sound projects were born! I spent some time investigating the sounds already coming from the sculptures I had already made. I recognised certain sound compartments reminded me of specific emotions. For example, the narrow gap in the centre of the piece above, "Bubbles", sounds happy to me.

This above image called, "Alien Formation", and has concentric circles in layers of clay embedded within the sculpture with gaps in between. This design has seemed to have harnessed some kind of power, as I am always blown away at how this sounds. I would describe it as a deeply toned, low rumbling, and eerie. Something that could be used in a soundscape to add depth and ambience.

I have a few projects on the go that we can all be excited about that I will be sharing here only exclusively. My current projects are:
• 🎛️ VCV Rack dark ambient synthesis
• 🎸 iRig + analog pedal processing
Future projects:
• 🌿 Plant music (biofeedback sensors)
• 3D Prints of Sound Sculptures (exclusive)

Live discussion on materials effect on sound are encouraged here, especially in the 3D print doc drops exclusively here.

I love how with ceramic work and the firing process how I get to hear how it sounds for the first time after this process. I know it's experimental when not even I the maker knows how it will sound until after this process.

I recorded some voice recordings to experiment with the resonant harmonic with these prototypes. I seemed to find some in the third OM of 2 & 3, 1 being the control recording.
