Movement is motion is vibration is sound at another scale. I am interested in this space between gesture and sound.
This series of instruments for musicians and dancers explore ways of controlling pitch and timbre through movement. They are completely acoustic, employing archaic principles from idiophone instrument design to explore the connections between sound and motion.
