untitled sound objects

At the outset of 2004, Pe Lang and Zimoun start their joint project «Untitled Sound Objects, based on work with materials brought to sound through vibration. They focus on creating acoustic architecture with an organic feel, investigating properties of sound, materials, resonance properties and generative systems. The work is presented as sound installations and as surround live performances.
live performances: Vibrating motors cause glass plates, on which various materials are placed, to oscillate. The vibrations move the materials and the frictions caused by this generate sounds, which are amplified via contact microphones and edited through DSP (Digital Signal Processing). Through a multiple channel speaker system amplified sounds are projected and reassembled into new sound architectures. The software used to control the vibrating motors and the sound editing is programmed with MAX MSP.
«Pe Lang and Zimoun developed a comprehensive instrument which combines image and sound to a unique experience of space, where the audience is invited to discover acoustic and optical micro structures of their Untitled Sound Objects. A fascinating collective art work.» Kevin Taylor
«The Untitled Sound Objects by Pe Lang and Zimoun convince through their elegant and clever simplicity in an inconspicuously complex setting.» Stephen Braun
