Ondulation
Seeing Sounds + Hearing Images
Presented as a "temporal sculpture," Ondulation (2002) is a composition for water, sound and light created by Thomas McIntosh in collaboration with Emmanuel Madan and Mikko Hynnimen. They continued with Ondulation the exploration launched in finale, the final work in the Silophone project, pursuing their interest in synesthesia, where a visual sensation is experienced through its analogy with an auditory perception. The work is presented as both an installation and a performance piece. [via langlois]
"Among artistic precedents that share the concepts and forms of Ondulation are Mud Muse (1971) by Robert Rauschenberg and Mediations (towards a remake of Soundings) (1979/86) by Gary Hill. Mud Muse was the result of a collaborative effort between Rauschenberg and various engineers as part of the Art and Technology exhibition, which was organized by Maurice Tuchman and presented at the Los Angeles County Museum in May 1971."
