GAFFTA - Mileux Sonores / Sound and Imaginary Space
September 11th – November 19th 2010
Gray Area Foundation for the Arts
MILEUX SONORES
This exhibit was really interesting, you enter this big polygon room where there is a screen where the user can manipulate and change the sounds by touching and moving the illuminated shapes. The structures projected ceiling also changes with the sounds. The other installations with sound were odd and I couldn't grasp the concept but later in the night there was a live performance by a noise sound artist with choreographed light visuals projected onto a protruding 3D octagon screen.
