An interactive exhibition
À propos
This interactive installation by Colin Frank allows visitors to virtually explore machine sounds from the city of Sherbrooke, Québec. Machines pervade urban environments, yet their sonic performances are often overlooked. From air conditioners to electrical boxes, mechanical sounds resonate all around us, forming urban soundscapes that are frequently ignored. Visitors can navigate a virtual environment comprising of field recordings and 3D models. Through the compression and digitization of those everyday spaces, the industrial urban environment becomes unexpectedly aesthetic, providing a reimagining of the city whereby non-humans have their own voices, and beauty arises from the functionality of industrial objects.
The exhibit opens September 26 at 7 pm with an artist talk by Colin Frank during which he will guide visitors on a tour of the installation and contextualize the piece in relation to his past work as a percussionist and sound artist.
