Dripping Sounds


'Federico Muelas Federico Muelas

Dripping Sounds is a visual/sound installation in which the evolving movement of drops of ink expanding into clear water determines the sound filling the space in an attempt to establish correspondences among the messages of dissimilar nature we perceive by our sense organs and to reveal the chaos surrounding us as the clumsiness to perceive the underlying order of nature. The “Dripping Machine” and the “Sound Screen” are the two apparatus the installation is comprised of. The first one is in charge of the optical projection of the enlarged image of the drop, the drop dispensing and the water renovation cycle.The second one translates the moving image of the blue ink projected over its surface.
