[ fluctuated rooms
“Expanded research builds the foundation of the concept, which, applied to a room, is able to change its spacial perception.” From a shared interest in artist led electronic music/sound work, fluctuated rooms tried to create a sound laboratory for contemporary sound artists from Vienna and the UK. The event at the foundry provided a platform for artists who work with sound, utilizing a specially designed sound system (dtm). This intensified the perception of the spectator through the use of frequences barely audible to the human ear, in addition to giving the audience an integral part in transforming an unacustic room into a dynamic and performative space, and facilitating some interesting comparisons of process and performance for each artist. With the use of multiple speakers, which enabled the sound to be moved through space, a new audible relationship was created with in the confined perspective of the venue. At times raw and intense the performances demonstrated the depth in which different approaches to sound can be manifested. From delicate moving clicks to resounding engines of noise, we hope we provided a small snap-shot of the kind of creativity apparent in this field. We would like to thank “the foundry” for their support during the event and “the hat-on-wall” bar for the warm up party.
