a performative sound installation for five tin can towers

Nowadays, most music is heard through loudspeakers. Typically, a loudspeaker is made for reproducing sound and its own sound should be inaudible: the music should be untouchable by the loudspeaker. In the piece in blik the loudspeaker coils do not have their own membranes, but transport their sounds directly to the tin cans. 
Tacile transducers are attached to metal plates and tin cans. The loudspeakers therefore shape their own sounds.
