A Space Traversed with Signals examines the space between individuals in the act of conversation. The work questions not the spoken words, but rather the gaps and micro-gestures within the dialogue situation, which can be understood as occupying the space of partial unpredictability – or rather a quasi noise state. Within this installation the viewer is positioned in the midst of the corridor of communication between speakers, inhabiting the fluctuating noise space between the two individuals.

The global hum that quietly fills the corridor from the sub woofer, contains a low frequency modulation (extended by the same ratio of the dialogue sounds), from the background noise of the room within which the conversation took place.

Special thanks to Jennifer Walshe and Tea Mäkipää for their participation, Sekhar for his help with the hum and Akademie Schloss Solitude for their support of this project.
