Conch - 2006
Fun little sound installation -
inspired by the idea that one can hear the ocean in a sea shell
utilizing a discarded MRI headphone unit to send
the ocean soundtrack through a tube into the conch.
This piece became a bit more conceptual as I mixed the soundtrack:
one listener will hear an aspect of the ocean (waves, seagulls, etc)
while another listener might hear, boats and foghorns
yet another listener might hear whale song.
The idea was to get people confused about what they really heard.
(Audience members have gotten into heated debates...)
