The Projekt Cave / Lights consists of four fluorescent lamps that flicker in random bursts, triggering an audio output. Though flickering lights are generally perceived as annoying, the installation conveys a meditative feeling immersing the visitors in a ambience of light and sound.
Inspired by the flaws of pseudo-random generative processes in music software, the concept aims at generating truly random signals. A computer cannot generate a real random sequence because it is always determinable . The Installation on the other hand generates the flickering of the lamps through modified lamp-starters. Being affected by various parameters (e.g. temperature or load the electric circuit has to bear), the starters generate a truly uncontrollable output of 0’s and 1’s. This output controls the flickering of the lamps, which in turn is fed into the computer via light sensors. The computer then processes the light flickering into gate signals, triggering the audio output.

The invention of intimacy

THE INVENTION OF INTIMACY
BRIEF INSTRUCTIONS FOR ENTERING A MATTRESS

The individual tale, the invention and the allegory.
The view of the other of ourselves.
A geographic love affair. One mattress, a story of two.

TENDER CORRESPONDENCES
Seven writers and seven performers invent an experience of intimacy; seeking reflection on that very personal story.

Seven letters were sent from Buenos Aires (Argentina) to Hallein (Austria), each containing ten simple instructions. Based on these letters the seven performers at SCHMIEDE developed their very own scene of intimacy.

This project is a part of PROYECTOHIBRIDOS, a collective of artistic investigation that began in 2010, back in Argentina.

A project by Barbara Echevarria from Buenos Aires, Argentina
