Ideas

As we experimented the Lemon battery, the electric current could also be produced by, for example, potatoes, or humans. In my project, I'd like to work with this concept. Supposedly each object has a different volume of electricity. When I can auditoryize different currents, it could be played like instruments.

In additional, I'm also curious about friction. If an object is frictioned by an impact, does an electric current occur then? Or does it change from the current it originally had? For example, when I hit an iron hanger on an iron laundry dryer(clothes dryer), friction occurs, and will electricity be generated?

For me, the definition of aesthetics has a wide range of diversity. Sometimes it should be visually aesthetic. On the other hand, it could look ugly, but the content can be aesthetic. The point is harmony and symmetry of itself.

When it comes to sustainability in aesthetics, the final artwork should be eco-friendly and green which means it will be proper when we work with recycled stuff or nature-resource. Either the solution of the works could be for future.

Prototype 432

Bernardas Bagdanavicius

"The prototype is constructed of steel elements united in a three dimensional matrix structure. Electric guitar steel strings are incorporated into machined heads attached to the steel frame. All 432 strings are crossed and spaced at regular intervals and each of them is has a contact microphone connected to the sound system and operated by computer. It is a closed circuit energy generator for the sound object."
