Here in my arms
2018 | industrial robotic arm and speaker dome (30')
Commissioned by Audiorama (SE).
Sponsored by the Swedish Arts Council and Universal Robots.
An industrial robotic arm surrounded by a monitor dome is operating a highly directional microphone, creating dynamic feedback in a weightless choreography. The robot’s accuracy in timing and positioning allows for detailed control of the feedback behavior and its transformations, as well as the possibility to recreate, relocate and modify these sonorities. In addition to the directional frontal capture, the microphone also occasionally amplifies the low frequencies coming from the robot’s motors, creating a second voice in counterpoint to the feedback line.
Selected performances: Audiorama (Stockholm, SE), Nordic Music Days 2019 (Bodø, NO), Geiger Oktoberfest 2020 (Göteborg, SE).
