Concept: The ear is designed to induce
the viewer to interact and create
random sound events in an exhibition
environment. A mini disc is recording,
so in turn will be played back the follow-
ing day through a speaker in the gallery
while people are again interacting with
the Ear thus creating an overlapping
loop. I see this as an opportunity for
the viewers to express their selves cre-
atively with no boundaries. Therefore,
the ear is a tool to inspire the public
to create a piece of sound art that will
reflect conflicting views and cultures in a
true light. There will be no need for me
to engage in editing, as when the lights
and the green beam of the oscilloscope
are triggered, the recording will auto-
matically commence. I am interested
in the mundane view through to views
that can smash political correctness,
but as a chaotic piece of art, nobody
can speculate the out come of which I
feel is truly exciting.
