Description

This sonic performance involves a feedback loop between a microphone and various domestic radio sets placed about the room. The microphone feeds an FM transmitter. This radio signal is received at different places and with varying fidelity. The performer is free to manipulate these transmissions through proximity, induction and other effects. Every performance is different due to the many unpredicatable factors of location.

Thanks

Thanks to John Cage and David Tudor for leading the way.

Thanks to the Daghdha Dance Company who provided a bursary (December 2007) for research into a work for movement, radio transmitter and microphone.
