PIPES...





This week I have been thinking about the possibility of working with pipes as a sculptural element within my sound installation. I was thinking of placing them wither within the beds of soil or in the middle of the room, or again suspended from the ceiling. Metal pipes would be great conductors for the sound and would allow the sound to travel through an object into the space. It would also be a great way to hide the speakers and microphones, although I am unsure of whether to include them, as perhaps by bringing in a visual element this might take way from the sonic experience, but in reality the pipes would probably engage the sonic experience through their vibration and reverberant qualities. Sound pipes are extremely resonant, the sound would echo and vibrate through out the space...

PIPES: Install pipes into the space and have voices coming out of them....Singing pipes coming from the earth...
