Strutton, John, 2015, Show, Exhibition or Event, Original Copy
Abstract or Description: | Original Copy is an on-going project that uses an old windup gramophone as a drawing machine. The original tone arm has been modified so that the stylus is extended through the cartridge of an ink pen. Paper is placed on the turntable and the pen is lowered onto the revolving sheet, in much the same way as the stylus would on a record, and draws a perfect set of concentric circles, whilst the response of the stylus to the movement of the pen can be recorded directly through the tone reflector. For the sound elements of the project Strutton has been collaborating with musician and sound engineer Riccardo Carbone who is also a fellow band mate in Strutton’s group “Arthur Brick”. For this performance the equipment was set up in a unique sound spot on the stair well of the De La Warr Pavilion which, because of its curved glass and low ceiling, created a physical surround sound space. |
