"silent objects", a research of sound recording and reading in the format of a sound installation. The installation consists of vertically placed paper that reads or reproduces the sound of rotating paper with a (spiral) sound recording. From the technical point of view, the installation functions on the principle of a phonograph, paleophone, graphophone, phonautograph and contemporary record player and the sound is amplified through a membrane – the vertical paper.

The work is an experiment with paper that silently reads a sound trace invisible to the eye. It is a contraption of the one-who-posseses and the one-who transmits, silently, delicately, invisibly and extremely materialy.

*Sara Salamon & Hrvoje Spudić have been exploring together sound and light as a medium since 2017. They are currently working on the possibilities of recording and the reproduction of sound in unexpected media such as paper and metal.
