Saccades: Voice Figures

http://silentlight.blogspot.com/2010/11/voice-figures.html

Photophonics • Eyes • Ears. 21 November, 2010. Quite a lot has cropped up on the web about Margaret Watts-Hughes's 'Eidophone' in recent years. The Cymatics crowd talk a lot about it (it kind of is Cymatics, but from the late 19th Century). Louise O'Connor and Nick Laessing have made some and performed with them. What you won't find, however, is any more than a very few images of her 'Voice Figures' - that is to say the ones that were. Quote from Isabel Barrington in The London Spectator,. Media, produce...

Saccades: Two Machines: 2 - Oramics

http://silentlight.blogspot.com/2009/02/two-machines-2-oramics.html

Photophonics • Eyes • Ears. 19 February, 2009. Two Machines: 2 - Oramics. System is currently residing in my workshop, until it gets moved to a permanent home. As you can see, it's in a bit of a sorry state, having had several owners since the passing of Daphne Oram. Why was Oram planning on adding a keyboard element? Hi ROB thats amazing you actually have the oramics machine! I wrote my dissertation on the link between sound and drawing Im on the (BA drawing course at camberwell). We chatted briefly aft...

Saccades: The Haptic Optic

http://silentlight.blogspot.com/2009/07/haptic-optic.html

Photophonics • Eyes • Ears. 18 July, 2009. How do you record an object properly? Is it always pertinent to photograph, or draw something, for example? How about something which is similar to both, but is really neither? Next, will be the contact printer that used to belong to the London Filmmakers' Co-op. Looks beautiful to me, especially the eyes staring at me in the 2nd picture. Though Im not sure how it relates to Daphne Oram. July 25, 2009 at 9:39 AM. Nice to hear from you Mr (Miss?

Saccades: Light Traps

http://silentlight.blogspot.com/2009/05/light-traps.html

Photophonics • Eyes • Ears. 13 May, 2009. It's all been done before in all sorts of ways you know - by the structuralist/materialist film makers in the '70's, people like Guy Sherwin and Liz Rhodes (not that I'd compare myself to them of course), and using video, the Vasulkas amongst others. Nonetheless, it can be satisfying to discover you've made a video that has the camera in it as an explicit and essential ingredient. May 14, 2009 at 9:14 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Saccades: Amber

http://silentlight.blogspot.com/2011/02/amber.html

Photophonics • Eyes • Ears. 19 February, 2011. Like much of my work, the sound and image are generated from the same light sources, and recorded simultaneously. What you see/hear are shop windows along Regent Street in Central London, with their various digital lighting systems buzzing away. The cross-fades in the audio coincide directly with the cross-dissolves in the image, mimicking each other. Was it the particular frequency of the modulations we hear? June 28, 2011 at 11:08 AM.

Saccades: Fever Dream

http://silentlight.blogspot.com/2009/10/fever-dream_8372.html

Photophonics • Eyes • Ears. 17 October, 2009. Copied from handwritten notes found in a copy of "Phylogenesis of the Ear" by Louis Guggenheim MD. Author unknown. Tropical – S.E Asia, Borneo, Sumatra etc. Consult Howard. Re. cases in urban centres. Europe.…. This acts to restore the integrity of the ossicle chain in an almost perfect inverse of the tympanic reflex, which has evolved to protect the inner ear from damage due to sudden loud events. It then winds back (wrong term? Also, for further reading see:.

Saccades: Tethered Objects

http://silentlight.blogspot.com/2010/11/tethered-objects.html

Photophonics • Eyes • Ears. 17 November, 2010. An attempt at a couple of thermo-acoustic oscillators. I didn't manage to get these tuned properly, so there's no sound to accompany the photos. But I will. They were produced for 'Works with sunlight'. At Meantime Arts in Cheltenham earlier in the year, and require a decent amount of sunlight, so they'll remain silent until next summer I should think. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

http://silentlight.blogspot.com/2010/03/two-simultaneous-places-or-how-to-fold.html

Photophonics • Eyes • Ears. 08 March, 2010. Two Simultaneous places - or How To Fold a Vibrating Wire in Three. And hello to Alvin Lucier. With the aforementioned speaker/piezo setup; somewhat crude, but it got things buzzing nicely. This particular piece is the result of a week's residency I've just finished at PVA MedliaLab. In Bridport, Dorset. Thanks must go to PVA for inviting me, and to Duncan Whitley for his support - both moral and practical - and also to Andrew Hinton. March 19, 2010 at 4:14 AM.
