life without air water light sound
part 2
A camera captures the silhouette of clay profiles manipulated on the armature by the sculptor.
The image is converted into a sound sample half a second long. The sculptor can preview this sound through headphones and add this to the theatre soundscape the audience and the dancer can hear. The waveform of this sound is projected onto the stage, so the audience can see the direct link with the clay shapes being manipulated.
In the example soundscape in the video below, the Australian aboriginal use of vocal mimicry for the word created when first encountering motor cars is used by creating a profile of the waveform silhouette printed on acetate film.
Clay is produced by geological and biological action and the red colour is the same iron oxides of rusted found objects, like saw blades and springs also used by the sculptor. An orb is assembled on the armature narrating the formation of a planet and the evolution of life.
