Fine Collection Of Curious Sound Objects
FINE COLLECTION OF CURIOUS SOUND OBJECTS
“The arrangement includes six exceptional exhibits from the world of sounds and acoustics. At first sight looking trivial, each object incorporates a very unique ability.”
Georg Reil and Kathy Scheuring, January 2010

Digging in the Crates – Roland Loesslein
Digging in the Crates is an interactive installation which offers possibilities to explore Sampling as a production technology of modern music. While dynamic data visualizations will be navigated using modified turntables, information graphics as well as auditory contributions helping to understand complex contents and relations.

Quarter Mile Groove- Daniel Eatock
Quarter Mile Groove 2008
vinyl record
The recording translates the length of its vinyl groove into audio allowing listeners to experience the 1/4 mile length of the spiral as the record is played. Every inch of the needle’s path is audible in the form of a click, each foot as a beat and distances of 10 feet are heard as a blip. These sounds gradually slow as the stylus approaches the center, (the stylus travels less distance in the groove with each revolution of the record). Along the way, the voice of the narrator mentions the horizontal dimensions of particular objects. The tangle is the unbroken, vinyl residue resulting from the initial master cutting of Quarter Mile Groove. Unraveled, this thread of vinyl would be 1⁄4 mile in length.
Clavilux 2000 – Jonas Friedemann Heuer
Length and vertical position show the velocity, the stripe’s width reflects the length of each note.
Notes belonging to one specific tonality always get colors from one specific area of the color wheel.

Fractions of a Second: An Olympic Musical
The NY times has an interactive info-graphic visualising the time separating athletes in each event.
I would like to have seen it with a different note for each event so as to produce a random score.
