Punctuation #2 Christoph De Boeck 2015

A series of cylinder objects adds punctuation to the central hall of the Old Prison in Hasselt. The objects contain an impact mechanism that strikes the surface it is attached to. This punctuation is acoustical: resonances of architectural elements are used to tap out an alphabet code based on the Polybius square.

This is the second work in a series that implements in sites an acoustic print of datastructures that are related to the function or history of that site. It is part of the group show Image Talks.
