Daniel Palacios, “Waves”

A long piece of rope represents three dimensionally a series of waves floating in space, as well as producing sounds from the physical action of their movement: the rope which creates the volume also simultaneously creates the sound by cutting through the air, making up a single element.

Depending on how we may act in front of it, according to the number of observers and their movements, it will pass from a steady line without sound to chaotic shapes of irregular sounds (the more movement there is around the installation) through the different phases of sinusoidal waves and harmonic sounds.

But even though this could seem like a mere representation of what we can’t see for ourselves, beyond the persistence of vision, it connects with our most visceral side, combining the intangible beauty of the represented graphic with the brutality of the sound it produces, creating a hypnotic environment of audible results and unique visual stimulations.

I’m not the ideal target audience for these methods, since I’ve probably opened about half a dozens bottles in my entire life, but this was pretty inventive.

I will pay cash money to anyone willing to teach me the no-doubt intricate steps involved in executing the “Baby Elephant Walk.”

Just awesome.

Alma Flamenca, The Art of Making. Someone about whom could be said: il miglior fabbro
