Wireless House - Nigel Helyer

Thu, 11/11/2010 - 01:51 — Jon

The original "Wireless House", located in HJ Foley Park on Glebe Point Road, was built in 1934 to provide radio broadcasts to the local community. For artist Nigel Helyer I developed a system to interactively playback archival audio and community oral history material from the original building. Here are some photos from the installation day.

Sounding the Winds

Tue, 11/09/2010 - 11:13 — Jon

Sounding the Winds is an instrument/sound installation that uses the movent of a kite in the wind as a gestural controller, generating a realtime electroacoustic environment in response to the kite's movements. Sensors placed on the kite measure changes in its orientation, speed and tension, transmitting the data to a ground-based computer via Bluetooth.

Max/MSP/Jitter, Firewire video camera (iSight), Glass, Water, Sugar, Coloured Dyes, 2ch or multi-channel (configurable) sound, data projector.

Duration c. 15 - 20 min

In this work, movement and colour are used to generate a sound environment based on real-time fof synthesis and spatialisation. The slow and evolving patterns of coloured dye in a viscous liquid are mapped into various sound synthesis parameters.

Icebergs - Lisa Anderson

Tue, 11/09/2010 - 01:05 — Jon

Lisa Anderson's Icebergs or The Truth About Sno Domes is a short film crossed with an imaginary documentary. The soundscape created by Jon Drummond incorporates sounds Lisa recorded while on expedition in the High Arctic including throat singer Celina Kalluk, sounds of the Russian Icebreaker Kapitan Khlebnikov and her own diaries. The unique images are some of Lisa's photographs of ice in many forms including glaciers, icebergs and ice floes. The work explores the edges of the remote areas experiencing the sheer force of Global Warming. The ice is melting in our Sno Dome.
