Foton and partners-in-crime FoAM join forces for an enchanting installation that injects different sources of lights into the dark winter months. The installation is a combination of glowing electroluminescent structures, alienating organic visuals, subtle light compositions and a minimal soundscape. All the elements combine to make you forget the winter darkness.
Bent Object
Building
Shafts of light and the camera are moving through the dark as in a glissando. Flat, sharply cut forms appear in black-and-white and high definition. They feel their way along expanses of wall, opening up storeys, windows and doors, and break down on floors, stairs and columns. In this way, according to a controlled choreography upheld by the music of Anton Aeki, a truly architectural experience is created on the screen. Like a constructivist audiovisual mobile, the building reveals itself and is being documented as in an architect's dream. In other words: as a spatial and atmospheric starting point for users to start leaving their marks on it. "Building" is inspired by the new concerthall in Bruges and thereby also pays homage to the work of Robbrecht&Daem, the Belgian architects' collective which is well known for such exploits as the new Boijmans Van Beuningen museum in Rotterdam and the Aue-pavilions for Documenta IX in Kassel.
Chill-Out 3000
"Chill-Out 3000" is a unique tactile sound-installation. To experience the installation one has to crawl inside a soft and stretchable cocoon, thus becoming part of an intimate and futuristic chillout environment. A suspended metal plate is hanging in the middle of the cocoon. Using advanced vibration technology this plate is transformed into an interactive loudspeaker, making sound tactile. Visitors can play with the plate, thereby transforming the sound.
Clicks 'n' Cars
"Clicks 'n' Cars" is an impressive audiovisual installation, involving four brand new car frames and four shakers, state-of-the-art scientific tools normally used in vibrational research. The car frames are attached to the ceiling and become loudspeakers by sending amplified sound into the shakers. Each car frame functions simultaneously as loudspeaker membrane and -housing, as well as musical instrument due to its particular frequency response. Using the installation, Foton artists provide a unique soundtrack of extreme frequency patterns, stripped-down soundscapes and physical resonances. Onto the futuristic visual experience created by the suspended car frames, a dreamlike layer is added through clever use of stroboscopic and ambient lighting effects. All these elements turn a "Clicks 'n' Cars" performance into a unique blend of auditory and visual wonder.
