In this piece the source
material of the violin, wood and strings, is the main focus. Besides
the violin also a loudspeaker object, constructed out of a tactile
transducer, wood and strings, is playing. The loudspeaker object is an
archaic counterpart of the violin, being wild and chaotic. As opposed
to the violin, her strings are not put up cleanly, but free to vibrate
with the sound.
The tactile transducer sends all the sounds through the wood and
strings. This is an absolute non-linear loudspeaker, in contrary to
normal PA loudspeakers.
The loudspeaker object starts with imitating the violin. With help of
live electronics, sounds of the violin are transformed and played
through the loudspeaker object. The violin is heard through the wood
and strings of the loudspeaker object. During the piece the loudspeaker
object looks for it own sounds, experiencing with its own sounds of
wood and strings.
