Petrified Waves
Illustrated Thoughts on Crystals, Waves and Interference
Crystals_solid. still fragile enough to become a device to transmit signals. stable. to store information for years and years. sparkling. so it creates a show that immerses people into its unique structure. sensitive. oscillating and monitoring. not living but reacting. with predetermined patterns
Waves_water can lead to waves when the tide is low and raises high again. sonar waves are my favorite ones. they are loud and can be harmful or quite and gentle but get to make my body move. electric waves can have are square shape. they can turn into a stroke. they are what makes our body stay alive.
Interference_People interfere when they come to close to each other. they collide and thoughts might merge. bing out new thoughts or block original thoughts.collision means destruction and mutation. means old ideas and new life It is matter that occurs at the same time same place. waves can interfere and evoke a strong crystaline growth.
First draft of an installation setup:
Visitors put their mouth near the microphone and make use of their vocal cord.
Microphone is atatched to a loudspeaker.
Above the loudspeaker the crystal solution is arranged.
Crystal solution is recorded from above with a video camera.
Video camera is attached to a projector that projects the image onto a wall.
The image shows the pertrified waves that are produced by the vocal cord of the visitors.
Some Experiments on aesthetics
Magnesiumsulfate + gold dust (crystalized after approx. 2h)

Setup to expose crystal solution to waves
petri dish contains magensiumsulfate solution
piezo disc is attached to the petri dish
piezo disc emits square waves produced by an oscilating circuit
sound isolating box with
magnesium sulfate solution
in petri dish
attached to peizo disc
piezo disk works as a loudspeaker in combination with the petri dish
