Interference (2015)
Steel plates, steel strings, electro-magnets, electro-magnetic pick-ups, amplifier, mixer, signal rooting ratio daily changed by the artists
Two steel plates are positioned in space as if they were about to fall, but their dynamic momentum has been paused: Connected by strings, they are forming an interdependent static entity. The plates are set in motion by electro-magnets using the hum of the mains voltage. The reactions of the strings are picked up, made audible and the signal is used to alter the frequency at which the plates are excited. The result is a complex swinging system which seeks a balance never to be reached: Due to superpositions and cancellations the audible drone and the visible shaking are constantly subject to minor changes, resulting in the impression that Interference seems to be stuck in a fragment of time eternally.
