An interactive acoustic sound sculpture. It amplifies and channels the user’s voice as well as the sounds of the surrounding landscape. Speak into it, listen into it.
To aid communication and encourage stranger to stranger interaction via the material mediator; To initiate situations in which an audience voluntarily and casually becomes the performer without the pressure of formally ‘performing’. Take the confidence from doing and sharing an act with another person.
Discover your own voice, another’s voice, and the voice of a landscape. It is a sculpture and an object to be played with, handled and used.
Exhibited first on tour of 5 UK festivals in 2018 before permanent installation at Coed Hills Rural Artspace.
