Petrified Waves
working atmosphere
First draft of an installation setup:
Visitors put their mouth near the microphone and make use of their vocal cord.
Microphone is atatched to a loudspeaker.
Above the loudspeaker the crystal solution is arranged.
Crystal solution is recorded from above with a video camera.
Video camera is attached to a projector that projects the image onto a wall.
The image shows the pertrified waves that are produced by the vocal cord of the visitors.
Some Experiments on aesthetics
Magnesiumsulfate + gold dust (crystalized after approx. 2h)
Attempt to magnify a drop of crystal solution with a green laser
Setup to expose crystal solution to waved
petri dish contains magensiumsulfate solution piezo disc is attached to the petri dish piezo disc emits square waves produced by an oscilating circuit
