Alt-Human (Stereo Downmix)

Generative sound, light & motion sensors
4 channel audio

Synopsis:
Commissioned as a site-responsive piece, I used light and motion sensors to create a meditative environment in dialogue with Isamu Noguchi’s metal sculptures that ground this beautiful space. The sound expresses the arc of natural light throughout the day, undulating and morphing according to shifting moods and atmospheres within the room as well as the changes out there on the water along Victoria harbour.

This work was commissioned by M+ Hong Kong for the ongoing exhibition "Shanshui: Echoes and Signals".

Drawn to Light (2024) - sound on site

Interactive textile sculpture
sound, light, motion and sensors

Borrowing from the Chinese idiom 见山 “to meet the mountain”, we ask what there is to discover when one contemplates mountains. This interactive sound sculpture crafted from fabric creates a focused and immersive experience blending sound, movement, and light. 

As visitors walk around, their proximity to the sculpture and the duration of presence will affect what sound and light combinations get triggered. Forest environments, birds, water streams, stones, string drones and monochord samples are gradually unfolded by visitors into an enveloping sonic environment in synchronisation with light changes and movement of the sculpture layers.
