Undimmed Quivering (via D.B. Indoš)Ivan Marušić Klif (HR)

Performance, 2006.

The installation functions as a more or less closed circuit. I set a defined group of initial parameters and a set of rules. Once the installation is activated, it is impossible to know the exact outcome because the system is too chaotic to be predictable.

Four overhead projectors are placed inside the room. Each contains a pool of water which quivers when the system of electric motors and mechanisms is activated.

Two-way feed-back loop:
sound creates animation
light creates sound

image
The overhead projection image is created mechanically – electric motors and the quivering systems animate the liquid in the pools. The output image resolution is unlimited.

sound
Photosensitive sensors react to the changes in light and shade and induce transformations of the synthesized sound. Microphones amplify the noise of the electric motors.
