Listening capsules (light version)
Thomas Barbé (FR), the Random(lab)
Our body is a tactile receiver of all musical waves: we perceive them through our skin, muscles, nerves, bones, etc. The listening capsules immerse the viewer in “somesthetic” compositions generated live by an algorithm. The intention is to take the listener out of his usual sound environment in order to invite him to renew his listening experience. These waves, sinusoidal frequencies, are composed and synthesized generatively by a software specifically developed for the installation, the sinoto.
