syncrowd

A kinetic sound installation that utilises a natural phenomenon called "synchronisation". Many pendulums interfere physically to be self-synchronisd as being controlled. They behave like a crowd, changing the environment in complex ways from disorder to order. The sounds that accompany the pendulum's motion form organic-like overlaps, creating a beauty that can be compared to the structure of minimal music.
Artist's Statement
Inspired by a fascination with universal laws governing natural phenomena, we aim to make cutting-edge research accessible, fostering a culture where science and art intersect. We thrive on lively discussions and multidimensional perspectives to illuminate the essence of things in today's uncertain society.
Juror's Comment
This entry delves into a distinctive exploration of scientific phenomena, utilising poetic metaphor to unveil abstract patterns and behaviours. It transforms these elements into a performative and experiential installation, making a notable contribution to the realm of chance-based music and offers a fresh perspective on the auditory representation of 'nature.'
