Dipole

2015

Dipole est une installation vidéo et sonore qui explore la relation entre reflet et résonance. Les plaques de métal sont utilisées dans le domaine du bruitage pour simuler le son de l’orage et du tonnerre, ou encore pour créer des effets de réverbération.

Here, this material is manipulated by the artist with the intention of making a silent film. Steel becomes an instrument of light, a wave of landscape set in the abyss. From this same steel plate, the artist created an electromagnetic system capable of setting the plate in motion according to a electromagnetic motor score written for the silent film.
This device is synchronized with the screening, as a musician playing upon a silent cinema piece. The sound resulting from the instrument is the speculative invention of the sound suggested in the film, just like if the material reminds his own memories of past transductions.
