Tower / microphone
Sound installation commissioned by Hic et nunc, contemporary art festival, San Vito al Tagliamento, Pordenone, 2005
24 contact microphones were placed on the roof, on the walls, between the bricks, and under the round of the ancient tower of the “Ospedale dei Battuti” in San Vito.
All 24 mics were plugged into a pa system which made tower become a big microphone.
The tower/mic’s sonic identity and sound relation with the environment was then affected by manipulating the volume faders and several analog filters connected to the pa.
