After
listening to several hundred amphora, we chose this round one as the
basic overtone series. It was placed by a balcony overlooking the
busy "4th of November"street and sat there generating overtones
in response to the flow of traffic. Busses activate the fundamental,
vespas activate higher overtones. A small mic suspended inside sent
this transformed sound to a speaker on site in real-time. Somehow
this musical version of traffic was meditative, and peaceful. It had
an impact on the psychology of navigating the site, giving it tonality
and direction, and a magical atmosphere detached from mundane city
noise. We felt protected by the overtones. |
