Tin Can Project: Network 2
2002 - Installation (interactive mixed-media)
In this piece, I built a series of networks.
On the inner area of the piece, was a hanging network of led lights,
lemons, wire, and plants. Around this, was another network made of a
carbon telegraph, 2 tin can telephones, and salt wave visualizers. The
telegraphs in the piece were built from instructions that I found online
from a Smithsonian exhibition
from 1976 that celebrated the telephone.
Viewers
could listen, make static, or experiment
with sound waves. The layout and structure of the piece was designed
to feel like a scientific model.
