Contagion I (2013)

from Beneath by Xo Xinh

/

about

The metaphor of contagion has crossed the boundary of medical science and infiltrated the discourses across the social science and humanity. Such terms as 'social contagion', 'financial contagion' and 'cultural contagion' seem to be the bywords for multidimensional concepts crossing and interconnecting society, business and culture. Contagion is a series of conceptual compositions for sounds from natural elements in nature and live electronics. The computer listens to and analyzes the rich timbre of the acoustic signal, then responds to it with corresponding synthesized sounds. The sound of natural elements is also played back after being heavily manipulated in realtime by the computer. The information of rising and falling amplitude of each sound controls its own panning in a four audio channel setting. Contagion I is a work for three glasses and live electronics, exploring the seamless timbre relationship and interaction between the two.
