Poly-Articulate

Poly-Articulate was a series of meditations around the paradoxes of articulation, considered in the heterogeneity of its material, visual, aural and conceptual aspects. Taking form through a collaborative working group of four artists/ designers/writers, the project used different technologies from the most ancient (the voice-box) to the most current (real-time rendering engines). With the utilisation of laser sensors crossing the gallery spaces, 20 digital monitors accompanied by vocal syllables would respond to the viewers? movement. Another piece of technology?a theramin installed below the sculpture of a trachea (inner ear)?mutated the vocal sounds upon its engagement along with a microphone suspended in one of the galleries. The visual and sound aspects of this project made it a compelling spatial experience. <br /><br />An interactive CDRom accompanied with a text by Justin Clemens was published with this project. <br />
