Traction Sub Bass for a new project

This week I managed to get to Manchester Met. University to meet with Dr Toby Heys (Digital Technologies Research Fellow, Research Centre, MIRIAD, Manchester School of Art) and begin work on the Furniture Music Project (working title).

The project has been developed by Toby and will start with a sound installation at the LEVEL Centre on the 29th of April 2017. Furniture Music is based around creating sound at the edge of, and just beyond, our (human) sensory perception. To do this Toby has been working with some bespoke speakers and had just taken delivery of a TRACTION Sub Bass - see images below.

I have just completed Pulse - a four chanel sound installation for Contexts 2015, Sokolowsko, Poland - organised by IN SITU and curated by Małgorzata Sady.

Projects for 2014

Over the next few months I am looking to develop some of the projects listed below. These are in early stage development and thought I would use this blog site as a means of sharing information throughout the process.  As each project grows (or dies) I will post the new details here. I am particularly keen to make contact with people, organisations and artists I do not currently know and hope that sharing information at an early stage may stimulate interest and new creative opportunities.

Trajectory Installation - Information

TRAJECTORY

8^th & 9^th of November, 2013

Embrace Arts, Richard Attenborough Centre, Leicester University.

A new installation by multi media composer, Andrew Williams developed as a part of his role as Leverhulme Artist in Residence at the University’s Space Research Centre.

Trajectory uses multi screen video projections and still images within a unique multi speaker audio installation composed using sound/data from space recorded by space craft, satellites and long wave radio. Continuously developing over two days it will present an artists perspective of our Earth, space, current research and future challenges for humanity.
