This
work objectified a 5Hz tone. It was a recording.
A single
speaker was attached to the underside of an aluminium tray projecting
sonic information, the kinetic/potential energy of the 5hz wave, into
its negative-space.
The
means of this recording were simple; plaster was poured into the tray
while the sonic information was present. As it set, the plaster
adopted the form of the space, but was also inevitably affected by
the presence of the tone. The sonic information is there in the
plaster, recorded as a mute, objectified trace.
