The whole process of planning, building and testing the installation happened during the first online semester and Covid-19 pandemic. Most of the life of an ordinary student such as me happened in a small room. Wether it’s working, sleeping, resting, meeting a few friends or just spending free time, everything that normally happened in quite different spaces was now forced and compressed into a small room. That naturally created different areas and spaces with very different meanings, actions and emotions connected with them. They often clashed, yet it wasn’t that easy to separate them from each other. These smaller areas are the basis for the sound composition. | |||
Actually, this relation and connection between the sound installation and the room during the lockdown wasn’t planned from the beginning, but evolved during the semester. The reason therefore was that working on the project perfectly showed the problematic of these different areas and actions colliding due to the lack of space. For example when I set up a 4 speaker surround system in my room, to try connecting the tracking data to the spatialisation of the sound material, one speaker had to stand on my bed to be in the right place, so I had to sleep elsewhere for a few nights. This slowly had me thinking that the installation had to be about this problem, as it fits the original idea of the installation so well. As a result you could say, the installation itself deals with the struggles and problems of its own creation. | |||
