TECHRIDER SOUND FOR ‘every one everyone’
The sound for the piece is a 9-channel composition from the sound artist Anke Eckardt, played over 9 loudspeaker chassis of different kinds. The speakers are hung in the space as a scultural object in different heights. They face different directions and are angled in that way that they are focused on the ear level of the visitors. The positions of the speakers need to be adapted to each space.
