GLISSANDI

GLISSANDI

The installation Glissandi makes realtime sinetone-glissandi. There are multiple tone-generators (number of generators divers per exhibition), that generate a continuous stream of glissandi. The inner definitions for making the glissandi, are controlled by a system that calculates the different pitches, based on proportions of the Golden Section.

The distance between the observer and the installation controles the speed of the different glissandi. In reaction of an approaching observer, the installation will increase the speed of the glissandi. In addition, if an observer is moving away from the object, the speed of the glissandi will decrease. If the observer is standing far away from the installation, the installation will sound very ‘harmonic’, in the emotional sense of the word. By approaching the installation, the observer more or less disrupts the emotional state of the installation.
