Wafer Flats

Wafer Flats (1985) was made while a guest of the DAAD Berliner Kuenstlerprogramm. This sound installation was created for the Galerie Giannozzo space. It used a number of sculptural loudspeakers (which directly vibrate sound into objects), acoustic lenses, a rotating loudspeaker, and a convential loudspeaker located in the cellar.
The vibrating speakers included 2 fishing poles, 6m. and 7m. long, the front window of the gallery, and a plastic jug. The robotic rotating loudspeaker was designed by John Driscoll and Peter Labiak. The sound material was created both electronically and acoustically, using unique ultrasonic and electronic instruments by John Driscoll.
