Duet for two activated floor toms performed at Cafe OTO London, August 2022.
Contact microphones were placed on both membranes, whilst miniature microphones were fed inside the drums to create two feedback chambers.
Modulating bass frequencies activated the membranes and whatever small objects were placed upon them.
The membranes are a distorted representation of our own ear drums, visually representing the disparity between the organic and the synthetic.
