What do you want to make?
A large scale textile soundboard (made as an interactive textile), containing a series of noises collected from public spaces. It can be played to create different city noise soundscapes, inviting the person playing with it to listen, move and imagine a path. Different points produce different sounds caught in the city. The person playing has to move and 'perform' because of the distance between the push sensors playing the sounds, enhancing the physicality and embodying the soundscape. The fabric will be woven using a mixture of thread, yarn and fabric found in the spaces where the listening and recording took place.
How do you plan to make it?
Collect sounds, collect pieces of conductive materials and fabric strands. Weave smaller prototypes at school and prepare for the big weave. Test all patches an
What is your timetable?
October - recording, collecting and listening, early prototyping (drawing circuits, read more on interactive textiles) November - recording, collecting and listening, learn more about interactive textiles, do smaller projects involving them December - recording, collecting and listening, experiment with circuit connections, weaving circuits January - recording, collecting and listening, start testing on a smaller scale February - weave first test patches
Why do you want to make it?
Sound connects. It is not physical but exists so powerfully in space. It identifies places but is not usually thought of or used to describe one, other than the simple ‘noisy’ or ‘silent’. Imagining and playing with mundane sounds, exploring the landscape with no visual aid, to notice and create new imaginary paths. Re-publishing existing and common sounds, bring a memory of public space and imagine upon it.
Who can help you and how?
Joseph and Manetta, the people from interaction station and fabric station, maybe individuals still to be contacted with interactive textile experience like Wendy Van Wynsberghe, Anja Hertenberger and maybe more:)
