Installation: Sound Waves in Light


"Repetition At My Distance" by Gabey Tjon A Tham

Using lighted wires, Tham simulates sound waves which undulate and vibrate in accordance with the ambient noise emanating around them.  The dancing streams of light come alive in front of a viewer’s eyes as they respond to the increasing and decreasing vibrations of air that blow across the speakers. According to the project description, the additional remnants of light that stay on the retina after looking away also become a key part of the experience.
