Acoustic Mirror
The movements of sound and the acoustic reflections that echo around, forming another movement of time and space, like a ghostly other, bringing to life the life that is. These voices unlock the past, inform the present, and expand the future. Influencing from ‘’Acoustic Mirrors’’ technology that have been used as radar to detect approaching aircrafts, ‘’Acoustic Mirror’’ invites audience to take a journey into the resonance environment created by the kinetic metal shape and transistors, which host a vibrant, hypnotic world of sounds reflect upon The Futurist Period via soundscapes from different geographies. Encoded sounds speculatively articulate the collective history to stimulate human fears, desires, and hopes in the context of technology. Which sounds from the history have been associated and transferred by science & technology? By which means? How have society and culture appropriated these sounds and means, and how people themselves listened to the objects, machines, and bodies they live with? Özcan Ertek, 2021
