After the tutorial with Milo, I started to come up with idea of adding acupoint to my head sculpture. In my first inspiration blog of this project, I mentioned having the sculpture covered in hairs; however I think that one would be to ideological for my assessment– I still need to make something with sound!
I sold my idea like this: making a live time interactive sculpture. In the first element, I will be making mouths of the people to speak and ears to listen. In the second element, which this piece will be exhibited, I will add more acupunctual features to it: having knobs on different acupoints which controls a variety of effects on the live-picked sounds.
We’ve came across several experiments: audible pins, LDR controlled audible circuit, pure data and Bela boards. Programming was new to me yet interesting, but still, I would say, I prefer analogue to digital!! It is not because I have built some analogue synthesiser during the summer, it is all the digital related thing makes me feel like an idiot.
